FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Mary Lindell, the Comtesse de Milleville was British-born but a largely forgotten agent. She combined a passion for adventure with blunt speech and persistently displayed the greatest personal bravery. The Germans denied that American or British prisoners were imprisoned in Ravensbruck but Lindell smuggled out a secretly compiled list that detailed women who were agents of British Military Intelligence, Special Operations Executive (SOE) or the French Resistance.
