Program Description

Details

Register and join us in person with Kit Sergeant, author of The Spark of Resistance. The year is 1942, and as the free world crumbles beneath Hitler's jackboot, Churchill's Secret Army begins recruiting women to infiltrate occupied France. The women spies, who come from all walks of life, agree to serve in the French Resistance. Learn about the adventures of these unimaginably brave women who did not know if they would ever see their families again.
