Networking for Alice

The Historical Novel of the Year

In 1915, a network of courageous spies left a legacy of glory and sacrifice. But also of betrayal. Thirty years later, the time for the truth has arrived.

1. The young American Charlie St. Clair is pregnant, unmarried, and about to be expelled from her very respectable family. As her world crumbles, her only glimmer of hope is the faint possibility that her beloved cousin Rose, who disappeared in Nazi-occupied France during World War II, may still be alive.

2. A year after the outbreak of the Great War, Eve Gardiner is eager to join the fight against the Germans, so she does not hesitate when she is recruited as a spy for the secret organization known as "Alice's Network."

Three decades later, obsessed by the betrayal that destroyed the network, Eve spends her days locked in her dilapidated London home, surrounded by bottles of alcohol. Until a young American woman appears at her door, uttering a name Eve has not heard in decades, and embarking on a mission to uncover the truth, no matter where it leads.

Heroism, love, and suspense in a captivating novel inspired by the real-life historical episode of the network of women spies who saved more than a thousand soldiers from death.
