1946, Manhattan: Grace Healey egy hétköznap reggel munkába igyekezvén átvág a New York-i Grand Central pályaudvar nagycsarnokán, és belebotlik egy gazdátlan bőröndbe. Kíváncsiságtól hajtva belekukkant, és egy borítéknyi fényképet talál benne. A tucatnyi női portré annyira megragadja, hogy a csomagot zsebre vágva sietve visszatuszkolja a bőröndöt a pad alá, és már szalad is a dolgára. Hamarosan megtudja, hogy a bőrönd tulajdonosa Eleanor Trigg volt, aki a második világháború alatt az angol titkosszolgálatnál női ügynökök hálózatát szervezte. Az ügynöknőket a megszállt Európában vetették be futárként és rádiósként, közülük azonban tizenketten soha nem tértek haza, sorsukat homály fedi. Grace megpróbálja felgöngyölíteni ezeknek a nőknek a történetét. Nyomozása egy Marie nevű ifjú anyához vezet, aki veszélyes franciaországi küldetése során a barátság, hűség és árulás útvesztőjében maga is kis híján odaveszett. Pam Jenoff regénye a második világháborúban tevékenykedő női titkos ügynökök köreibe repíti az olvasót. A valós eseményekre épülő történetben feltárul előttünk ezeknek a merész és hősies nőknek a háborúban betöltött fontos szerepe, miközben a szerző magával ragadóan mesél bátorságról, testvériségről és a legnagyobb vészben tanúsított túlélő erőről is.

È mattina e Grace Healey si trova alla Grand Central Station quando nota una valigia abbandonata sotto una panchina. Incapace di resistere alla curiosità, decide di aprirla e rimane stupita nel trovare al suo interno una dozzina di fotografie di donne. Ma a chi appartengono quei volti e che storia si nasconde dietro alla valigia? Senza riflettere troppo, Grace lascia velocemente la stazione. Si mette sulle tracce di quel ritrovamento e, dopo qualche ricerca, scopre che la valigia apparteneva a una donna chiamata Eleanor Trigg, capo di una rete di spie donne inviate da Londra durante la guerra. Dodici di loro sono state inviate nelle zone occupate dell’Europa come corrieri o operatrici radio per dare supporto alla resistenza, ma nessuna di loro è mai tornata a casa e il loro destino è un mistero. Sempre più intrigata dalla sorte di quelle donne, Grace decide di scavare più a fondo e si mette sulle tracce di Marie, una giovane madre diventata da poco un’agente.
