'A gripping tale' MY WEEKLY 'Thrilling' WOMAN 'A truly gripping
read of mystery, love and heroism' FROST MAGAZINE The Lost Girls of
Paris is an emotional story of friendship and betrayal during the
second world war, inspired by true events - from the international
bestseller Pam Jenoff. 1940s With the world at war, Eleanor Trigg
leads a mysterious ring of female secret agents in London. Twelve
of these women are sent to aid the resistance. They never return
home. 1946 Passing through Grand Central Station, New York, Grace
Healey finds an abandoned suitcase tucked beneath a bench. The case
is filled with a dozen photographs, each of a different woman.
Setting out to find the women behind the pictures, Grace is drawn
into the mystery of the lost girls of Paris. And as she delves
deeper into the secrets of the past, she uncovers a story of fierce
friendship, unthinkable bravery - and, ultimately, the worst kind
of betrayal. Praise for The Lost Girls of Paris: 'Fraught with
danger, filled with mystery, and meticulously researched, The Lost
Girls of Paris is a fascinating tale of the hidden women who helped
to win the war.' Lisa Wingate, New York Times bestselling author of
