She was the Gestapo’s most wanted women. Now she’s ready to tell her story.
A gripping dual timeline WWII historical fiction novel inspired by real-life resistance fighter Nancy Wake—one of the most decorated female spies of the Second World War and a legendary figure of the French Resistance.
London, 2010.
When Aroha Tui is assigned to care for an elderly woman, she expects quiet routine. Instead, she meets Nancy Wake, the “White Mouse,” the woman the Nazis could never capture.
Nancy offers her a bargain: find the war medals she believes were stolen, and she will reveal the truth she has never shared.
As Aroha joins forces with Jules, a young Frenchman whose grandfather fought beside Nancy in the Resistance, the past begins to resurface—layer by layer. Love lost, betrayal endured, and courage tested in the darkest of times.
But the deeper Aroha is drawn into Nancy’s story, the harder it becomes to walk away. Because this is more than history.
It is a legacy. A connection. And a reckoning she can no longer ignore.
Perfect for readers of WWII historical fiction, female spy novels, and dual timeline stories of courage, identity, and resilience.
The Ace of Nerve: Codename Hélène launches an unforgettable trilogy about resistance, sacrifice, and the invisible ties between women across generations.
