In the beginning of WWII, with Britain becoming desperate, Churchill hastily orders his new spy agency - Special Operations Executive (SOE) - to recruit and train women as spies. Their daunting mission: conduct sabotage and build a resistance.

SOE's "spymistress," Vera Atkins, recruits two unusual candidates: Virginia Hall, an ambitious American with a wooden leg, and Noor Inayat Khan, a Muslim pacifist.

Together, these women help to undermine the Nazi regime in France, leaving an unmistakable legacy in their wake.

Inspired by true stories, this is the revolutionary tale of courageous women prevailing in a battle where the stakes have never been higher, and whose telling is long overdue.
