Natasha Lester passionately brings to life the true story of one of history's unsung Marie-Madeleine Fourcade, the only woman to lead a resistance network in WWII France. Marie-Madeleine Fourcade was an extraordinary woman. Mother. Rally-car driver. Journalist. A woman who was at the top of the Gestapo's most wanted list and suffered physical hardship and psychological pain in fighting for her beloved France.

This is a story about the very best people, those who endangered their own lives and the lives of their loved ones and associates, and the Nazis who tortured, raped, looted and murdered.
