Description

The Glovemaker's War by Katherine Williams is a heart-wrenching and uplifting tale of three generations of women, spanning decades of courage, secrets, and discovery. In 1943, Eve Harrison joins the Special Operations Executive as a courier for the French Resistance, using her skills to transmit vital messages from occupied France back to England. As Eve navigates the treacherous landscape of war-torn Europe, she must confront the risks of her mission and the personal costs of her bravery. Seventy-three years later, Eve's story is revealed to her granddaughter Georgina, who sets out on a journey of self-discovery to uncover the truth about her grandfather's fate. This powerful work of fiction sheds light on the often-overlooked stories of women who played a crucial role in shaping history during World War Two.
