Sinopsis

In January 1943, 230 women of the French Resistance were sent to the death camps by the Nazis who had invaded and occupied their country. This is their story, told in full for the first time—a searing and unforgettable chronicle of terror, courage, defiance, survival, and the power of friendship. Caroline Moorehead, a distinguished biographer, human rights journalist, and the author of Dancing to the Precipice and Human Cargo, brings to life an extraordinary story that readers of Mitchell Zuckoff’s Lost in Shangri-La, Erik Larson’s In the Garden of Beasts, and Laura Hillenbrand’s Unbroken will find an essential addition to our retelling of the history of World War II—a riveting, rediscovered story of courageous women who sacrificed everything to combat the march of evil across the world.


How did ordinary women become heroes, and how did their bonds of friendship become their greatest weapon?


Le Convoi des 31000: The full story of the only convoy to transport women of the French Resistance to the Nazi death camps, a journey into the heart of terror. A Testament to Friendship: Discover how the power of friendship became a shield against despair, as these women shared their rations, their secrets, and their strength to keep one another alive. Life in Occupied France: Experience the tense, clandestine world of Paris under Nazi rule, where every meeting was a risk and every stranger a potential enemy or ally. Essential Women’s History: A landmark account that shines a light on the vital, often overlooked, role of women in World War II, perfect for readers of Erik Larson and Laura Hillenbrand.
