New York Times bestseller Natasha Lester is back with her latest heart-breaking historical novel, The Mademoiselle Alliance.

Inspired by a true story, The Mademoiselle Alliance follows the journey of Marie-Madeleine, a young, glamorous Parisienne mother who led the largest spy network in France.

From 1928 in Morocco to 1938 in Paris, Marie-Madeleine is an adventurer, dabbling in intelligence work for the government. As Europe faces war, a mysterious codenamed man Navarre recruits her to help build a resistance network known as the Alliance. Marie-Madeline then embarks on a perilous double life away from her children and the man she loves.

Based on the true story of Marie-Madeleine Fourcade, the only woman to lead a resistance network in WWII France, The Mademoiselle Alliance brings her story of epic love, tragic loss and magnificent leadership to life.
