Summary October 11, 1943: A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its young pilot and passenger are best friends. One of the girls has a chance at survival. The other has lost the game before it's barely begun. As a secret agent captured in enemy territory, "Verity" is living a spy's worst nightmare. Her Nazi interrogators give her a choice: reveal her mission or face a grisly execution. As she intricately weaves her confession, Verity uncovers her past, how she became friends with the pilot, and why she left her in the wreckage.
Audience Recommended for middle readers.
