Description
A suspenseful story of a young girl's experiences joining the resistance in German-occupied France
In 1939, the start of the Second World War, Sophie becomes a messenger for a resistance group in northern France. But as the German invaders overwhelm the British forces on the French coast, Sophie finds herself more deeply involved with the resistance - and in a dangerous plan to save a young Scottish soldier.
