About

The inspiring story of the half-French Violette Szabo who was born in Paris in 1921.

She was recruited into the SOE and underwent secret agent training. Her first trip to France was completed successfully even though she was arrested and then released by the French Police. On June 7th, 1944, Szabo was parachuted into Limoges. She was captured by the SS and handed over to the Gestapo in Paris for interrogation.

From Paris, Violette Szabo was sent to Ravensbruck concentration camp where she was executed in January 1945. She was only 23 and for her courage was posthumously awarded The George Cross and the Croix de Guerre.

Illustrated with numerous monochrome images/portrait.
