Learn moreThree women. One mission. Enemies everywhere.
May 1944. When spy Elisabeth de Mornay, code name Cécile, notices a coded transmission from an agent in the field does not bear his usual signature, she suspects his cover has been blown—something that is happening with increasing frequency. With the situation in occupied France worsening and growing fears that the resistance has been compromised, Cécile is ordered behind enemy lines.
Having rendezvoused with her fellow agents, Léonie and Dominique, together they have one mission: help the resistance destabilize German operations to pave the way for the Normandy landings.
But the life of a spy is never straightforward, and the in-fighting within the resistance makes knowing who to trust ever more difficult. With their lives on the line, all three women will have to make decisions that could cost them everything—for not all their enemies are German.
Mara Timon was raised in New York and moved to the UK almost twenty years ago, and fell in love with London and the way it melds the old and the new. Growing up with one parent fascinated with literature and the other with history, she started writing from an early age, although it wasn’t until a program on the BBC caught her interest and one “what if” led to another, that her first book began to take shape.
Reviews
“DeMornay is a welcome recruit to the ranks of female spies.”
“Casablanca meets le Carre for a refreshing spin on the sometimes creaky spy thriller genre.”
“A heart-stopping read—fantastic writing with a compelling cast and sinuous plotting, Resistance is a gift to all fans of espionage thrillers and high quality, immersive historical fiction”
