Oct. 11th, 1943: A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its pilot and passenger are best friends. One of the girls has a chance at survival. The other has lost the game before it's barely begun . . .
Harrowing and beautifully written, Elizabeth Wein creates in Code Name Verity a visceral read of danger, resolve, and survival that shows just how far true friends will go to save each other.
"Made up of equal parts Nancy Drew, Girl Scout, and Steve McQueen, these girls show just how much they took on, and how much they were capable of doing, during the war while the men were away. Suffice it to say that if you are a fan of intrigue, war and strong females you will not be disappointed." -- Ink and Page
