The Resistance Sisters, Book 2

By: Rachel Wesson

Narrated by: Harrie Dobby

France, 1942: With Europe struggling under German occupation, Sophie Bélanger, grieving the deaths of her brother, fiancé and friends, is no longer prepared to stand on the sidelines.

Risking everything, she becomes increasingly involved in helping to save those on the run – even though that means persuading Jewish parents to hand over their children, in the desperate hope of saving their lives. When she is forced to flee to the non-occupied zone, her medical skills take her to the French camp of Rivesaltes, where she cares for the injured and unwell – until one day her luck runs out.

Meanwhile her twin, Adèle, has shed her socialite pretensions, completed her special agent training, and is poised to begin her first mission. Ready to set France ablaze, she parachutes into occupied territory and begins work drilling maquisards in guerrilla warfare, determined to thwart the Nazis at every turn – whatever the cost – and avenge the death of her beloved brother.

Soon both sisters are fighting for their survival – unsure if they’ll live to see each other again. Will the twins’ secret be their undoing?

An epic, awe-inspiring and heartbreaking story of courage against all the odds which will have you on the edge of your seat. Fans of The Alice Network, The Nightingale and The Dressmaker’s Gift won’t be able to stop listening.

Such a great book. Title it; FRANCE. THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY CITIZENS IN WW2

I loved one twin the whole two books but the other twin I just can’t give it away or ruin it for future customers \. Never boring ,sometimes very frightening sadness and exhilaration several minutes apart. Hated to see it end. The author deserves all 5 stars will look for more audibles from her . If you love ww2 like I do this is the book for you . The only way i can let go of what the nazis and collaborators did to human beings is as a CHRISTIAN woman I know for certain each one will stand ALONE before a just GOD TO BE JUDGED
