This is the the story of Noor Inyahat Khan, a wireless transmitter for the Special Operations Executive in WW2 and was executed in September 1944 at Dachau. The story is quite remarkable and well worth a read.
At times the book can get a bit much due to the fact that the author had so much information. At times, I got lost with all the names that were kind of thrown at you. However, that does not detract from the main story. I have got to say at times, this book broke my resolve and I nearly ended up on floods of years. At other times, whilst the horror of the treatment of these women was muted, it was ever present. Just think, in the book it tells you that the life expectancy of a Wireless transmitter in Paris was six weeks, Noor managed to evade capture for three months.
