Part biography, part political thriller, part scholarly detective story that draws on letters, diary entries, notes smuggled out of a Berlin prison, and other documents, this true story chronicles the life and brutal death of Mildred Harnack, the American leader of one of the largest underground resistance groups in Germany.

Amazing Story submitted by dwick on June 19, 2023, 8:35am The style of writing and organization of sections is unlike typical histories and biographies. It doesn't march through the history. It focused my attention on these individuals and their roles in the Resistance.
