Summary

Mary Lindell, the Comtesse de Milleville was British-born but a largely forgotten agent. She combined a passion for adventure with blunt speech and persistently displayed the greatest personal bravery. The Germans denied that American or British prisoners were imprisoned in Ravensbrück but Lindell smuggled out a secretly compiled list that detailed women who were agents of British Military Intelligence, Special Operations Executive or the French Resistance. This book details their survival and rescue under Mary's heroic leadership.
