The Darkest Hour

Key Features Description After the Nazis killed Lucie Blaise's brother on the North African front, she volunteered at the Office of Strategic Services in Washington, D.C., to do her part for the war effort. Only instead of a desk job at the OSS, she was tapped to join Clandestine Operations, a secret espionage and sabotage organization for girls. Now Lucie has been deployed to German-occupied France to gather intelligence and eliminate Nazi targets. Her current mission? Track down and interrogate a Nazi traitor about a weapon that threatens to wipe out all of Western Europe, then find and dismantle the weapon before Hitler detonates it. The deeper she investigates, the more danger Lucie finds herself in. With the fate of the free world hanging in the balance, trusting the wrong person could cause millions of lives to be lost, including her own.
