A wartime network traced through a suitcase of photographs

In 1946, Grace Healey discovers photographs linked to Eleanor Trigg, who led a London network of female secret agents during the war. Her effort to uncover what happened to the women—sent into Occupied Europe as couriers and radio operators—connects the postwar search to Marie, a young mother turned agent. The novel moves between that investigation and the mission overseas, bringing friendship, resistance work, betrayal, and the women’s wartime experiences into one story. Its premise is inspired by true events, while the central mystery follows the fate of the agents who did not return home.

Three women. One daring mission.

1946. One morning while passing through Grand Central Terminal, Grace Healey finds an abandoned suitcase tucked beneath a bench. Inside is a dozen photographs--each of a different woman. Grace soon learns that the suitcase belonged to Eleanor Trigg, leader of a network of female secret agents deployed out of London during the war. Twelve of these women were sent to Occupied Europe as couriers and radio operators to aid the resistance, but they never returned home.

Setting out to learn the truth behind the women in the photographs, Grace finds herself drawn to a young mother turned agent named Marie, whose mission overseas reveals a remarkable story of friendship, valor and betrayal. In this riveting story inspired by true events, Pam Jenoff weaves a tale of courage, sisterhood and the great strength of women to survive in the hardest of circumstances.
