Jenoff, Pam	Eleanor Twigg, Marie Roux, and Grace Healy	London, UK and France	1944 and 1946		Eleanor works at SOE during WWII. Because male spies sent by SOE into France are so easy to spot (all the French men are in the military), Eleanor convinces SOE to send women operatives into France to make contact with the French Resistance, operate radio contact, and perform sabotage. Eleanor is assigned to recruit, train, and be contact for the operatives. Marie is one the SOE operatives who goes into France, and she dies there. Eleanor discovers that these women operatives had been betrayed to the Germans, and that SOE top people knew about the betrayer, but SOE management did nothing about the leak because they could use the channel to feel misinformation to the Germans. After the war ends, Eleanor investigates what happened to the missing women, but she dies in a traffic accident before she can expose the leak. Grace finds some of the clues, and she searches until she finds the answers, and she provides the leak information to Parliament.
