A BRAND-NEW gripping and unforgettable tale of love, loss and bravery in the shadows of war. Perfect for fans of Kate Quinn, Mandy Robotham and Suzanne Kelman. 📖They said women were a liability in war. They were wrong.

An intriguing invitation…

Hampered by a controlling father and overlooked by everyone she knows, Serenity Ashworth (Wren to her friends) is determined to do her duty for the war effort and take advantage of the new opportunities for young women like her. So, when a mysterious letter from a Major Belinda Stapleton arrives, Wren is intrigued.

A secret army of women…

Major Stapleton invites Wren to join her Secret Army – a select group of women operating undercover to combat enemy agents. It’s an opportunity to play a critical role in the British Resistance should Hitler ever invade Britain’s shores. Eager to sign up, Wren must first complete a tough training program and, if she succeeds, will enter a world of secrets and spies where the only people she can rely on are the other girls she's trained with.

A daring and deadly mission

Unable to share her secret with anyone, Wren must be ever alert. But when her twin brother Tommy is reported missing in action, Wren is devastated, and even more determined to hit back at the enemy any way she can. When an unexpected opportunity arises to save Tommy, Wren must overcome all self-doubt and take a chance to save those she loves - even if she pays the ultimate price...

I was born in Sheffield and brought up in South Wales. When I was a child I wanted to be a writer. Unfortunately, my teacher told me that I wasn’t creative. I was completely crushed and didn’t think my dream could ever come true. I studied Environmental Sciences at Southampton University, did a post- graduate qualification in management and then worked for the NHS as a GP surgery manager. In my mid-forties, I decided to give writing a chance. I left my twenty-year career and became a part-time school librarian. This gave me time to write. Now, I live in a ramshackle cottage in the New Forest with my husband (who is, probably, the most patient man on the planet). I spend all day every day either writing books, illustrating books or talking about books and I have never been happier. 
