Description
Under Occupation by Alan Furst is set in Occupied Paris, 1942. In this dark and treacherous city, French resistance fighters work secretly to defeat Hitler, while German forces are everywhere. A man being chased by the Gestapo hands off a mysterious document to novelist Paul Ricard just before he dies. The document appears to be a blueprint for a military weapon, potentially holding crucial information for the Allied forces. Ricard must navigate anti-German efforts and travel into enemy territory to get the document into the hands of resistance network members. As he works with Leila, a professional spy, they begin to gather and transmit vital information out of France and into London, where it can aid the Allied war effort.
