A novel that will capture your heart and then shatter it into a thousand pieces. "Code Name Verity wrecked me." LEIGH BARDUGO "Genuinely stunning." MAUREEN JOHNSON ''It has been a while since I was so captivated'', THE GUARDIAN ''Remarkable'', DAILY MAIL "Will soar into your heart", LAURIE HALSE ANDERSON "Had me gasping out loud" GAYLE FORMAN I have two weeks. You'll shoot me at the end no matter what I do. October 11th, 1943 A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its pilot and passenger are best friends. One of the girls has a chance at survival. The other has lost the game before it's barely begun. But their love will have the power to change everything. When "Verity" is arrested by the Gestapo, she's sure she doesn't stand a chance. As a secret agent captured in enemy territory, she's living a spy's worst nightmare. Her Nazi interrogators give her a simple choice: reveal her mission or face a grisly execution. As she intricately weaves her confession, Verity uncovers her past, how she became friends with the pilot Maddie, and why she left her in the wrecked fuselage of their plane. On each new scrap of paper, Verity battles for her life, reflecting on courage, failure and her desperate hope to make it home. But will trading her secrets be enough to save her from the enemy? 'I was so captivated'- Guardian 'Heartbreaking' - Kirkus starred review This heartbreaking World War II novel of adventure, love and female friendship from award-winning Elizabeth Wein is perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah's The Women, Laura Nowlin's If He Had Been With Me and Marcus Zusak's The Book Thief

This is a great read, just enough humor to keep you going through some harrowing experiences. It's very skillfully written, the characters are three-dimensional and worthy of respect, even when we don't like what they're doing, and all deserving of a better outcome than what war offers them. In that it is very realistic. Some teens who already have some knowledge of the world and its history would enjoy it as much as I did; some may not be ready for this much reality.
