**A NATIONAL BESTSELLER** "Readers will be on the edge of their
seats.... A brilliant tale of resistance, courage and ultimately
hope." -Kelly Rimmer, New York Times bestselling author of The
Warsaw Orphan From the New York Times bestselling author of The
Last Bookshop in London comes a moving new novel inspired by the
true history of America's library spies of World War II. Ava
thought her job as a librarian at the Library of Congress would
mean a quiet, routine existence. But an unexpected offer from the
US military has brought her to Lisbon with a new mission: posing as
a librarian while working undercover as a spy gathering
intelligence. Meanwhile, in occupied France, Elaine has begun an
apprenticeship at a printing press run by members of the
Resistance. It's a job usually reserved for men, but in the war,
those rules have been forgotten. Yet she knows that the Nazis are
searching for the press and its printer in order to silence them.
As the battle in Europe rages, Ava and Elaine find themselves
connecting through coded messages and discovering hope in the face
of war. "Uplifting, inspiring and suspenseful, this is one to
savor!" -Natasha Lester, New York Times bestselling author of The
Riviera House "Madeline Martin is a fantastic author. The Librarian
Spy is a stunning tour de force of historical fiction." -Karen
Robards, author of The Black Swan of Paris For more historical
fiction from Madeline Martin, don't miss The Last Bookshop in
