Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Based on the memoirs and biographies of dozens of women who risked their lives working underground to subvert the most terrifying war machine in modern history, From the Wings is a novel of courage, sacrifice, and perseverance in the face of death. When Hitler's troops storm France, an American woman is forced to face the fact that the future she'd envisioned no longer exists. Hoping to distance herself from her former life as Broadway actress, Eve Sands, she joins the International Red Cross and sails to England. Aboard ship, Eve overhears a frightening exchange between two men plotting to sabotage British tank deployments in North Africa.an experience that ultimately catapults her into the shadowy depths of war-torn Europe where the art of the ruse is the only defense against sudden death. When not working a regular job in a London hospital, Eve adopts clever disguises and personalities to courier diamonds to various networks of the Resistance. In this role, she's joined by a remarkable cast: a German Jew with a gift for impersonation; a Special Operations assistant to Winston Churchill; a Russian pilot known as "The White Rose of Stalingrad;" the indomitable Sisters of Saint Lorraine, who run their Paris convent as a safe house right under the noses of the Nazis; and, a British factory owner whose total devotion to the cause makes everything possible. From the Wings is the extraordinary story of one woman's fight to reinvent her life, even as she fights to save the lives of people she will never know. This item is printed on demand.
