Product Overview
Just weeks after Germany invaded her homeland, Christine Granville, (born Krystyna Skarbek), the daughter of a Polish aristocrat, arrived in London and demanded to work for the British Secret Service. Described in an intelligence report as a great adventuress and absolutely fearless, she became one of the SOEs most daring, determined and highly decorated agents. This biography tells the story of a charismatic woman who loved men and sex, adrenalin and adventure, but found it hard to adjust to post-war life. Off-mint.
