Who were the women behind enemy lines? Historian and broadcaster Dr. Kate Vigurs brings to light the extraordinary true stories of the female agents of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) in her gripping new book, Mission Europe. These women were wireless operators, couriers, saboteurs – and resistance heroes whose lives were cloaked in secrecy, danger and extraordinary bravery.
For a thrilling hour, she’ll shares the hidden histories of these wartime heroines who operated in Nazi-occupied Europe, revealing not only their daring missions but the complex lives they returned to, often unrecognised and sometimes forgotten.
Drawing on newly declassified material and vivid firsthand accounts, this is a chance to hear the voices of women whose courage shaped the course of World War II. A perfect event for fans of espionage, history and fearless female trailblazers.
