Sinopse

In this mesmerizing historical novel, two women—a spy recruited into the Alice Network , a real-life scheme that took place during World War I, and an American college student searching for her cousin at the end of World War II—are united in a tale of courage and redemption.

The story portrays two periods and plots that will blend together and arouse the curiosity of readers most avid for historical fiction.

In 1947, at the chaotic end of World War II, Charlie St. Clair is a pregnant college student without a husband and about to be thrown out of her home by her family. She also harbors a desperate hope that her cousin Rose, who disappeared during the Nazi occupation of France, might still be alive. So when Charlie's parents take her to Europe to treat her "little problem," Charlie flees to London, determined to find out what happened to the cousin she loves like a sister.

In 1915, Eve Gardiner wants to fight the Germans in World War I. She gets her chance when she's recruited as a spy and sent to France, where she's trained by Lili, the queen of spies, who manages a vast network of informants right under her enemies' noses. Thirty years later, haunted by the betrayal that dismantled Alice's Network, Eve spends her days drunk in her London home, until a young woman appears, speaking a name she hasn't heard in a long time—and launches her on a mission to uncover the truth.

Alice's Network is a novel of glory and sacrifice that will have readers embarking on this adventure and making sure they don't put it down until the last page.

This is an incredible story of courage and redemption. - Reese Witherspoon
