Description
The Secret Messenger is a historical fiction novel by Mandy Robotham, set against the backdrop of World War II in Venice and modern-day London.
Against all odds, Stella Jilani leads a double life as a typist for the Reich by day and a messenger for the Italian resistance by night. She must risk her life to impart Nazi secrets, smuggle essential supplies, and produce an underground newspaper on her beloved typewriter. But when German commander General Breugal becomes suspicious, Stella's future is in jeopardy.
Years later, Luisa Belmont discovers a mysterious old typewriter in her attic, leading her to uncover the story of Stella's bravery and sacrifice. This is a fascinating tale of the bravery of everyday women in the darkest corners of WWII, for readers who enjoy historical fiction.
