We'll Meet Again: Red Herring

by HilaryGreen (Author)

Synopsis

Love and danger intermingle in the dark days of the Second World War - this is a wartime romance of immense appeal. This work is set in Liverpool, in 1942. Seventeen-year-old Frankie Franconi falls in love with charismatic British officer Nick Harper as quickly and certainly as the bomb that falls on their shelter. He is impressed by her good looks and intelligence, and the fact that, like him, she speaks fluent Italian. When she insists on staying to help rescue others who have been trapped, he realises that she has courage, too. He gives her a business card with a Baker Street address, and suggests she put her skills to good use. Within a month Frankie has joined the FANYs and started her training. Stationed first in England, then Africa and finally Italy, Frankie and her fellow recruits work tirelessly decoding messages from agents in the field by day, and enjoying the wartime parties at night. But when she signs the Official Secrets Act, she has no idea of the danger, adventure and terrible choices that are in store.
