Description
Award-winning bestseller in France, now available for global readers, this is the true story of Ginette Guy, a daring resistor of the Nazis in Vichy France who chose resistance over submission, sheltered Jews, operated within a clandestine network, and risked everything for freedom. Arrested by the Gestapo and interrogated by its ruthless chief, she gave nothing away-earning the chilling tribute in his files: “She was the most resistant of all.” Told by her daughter, historian Nicole Bacharan, this deeply moving narrative blends meticulous historical research with intimate family details, restoring the forgotten women's war and illuminating the eternal questions of moral choice and resilience.
