<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"At the height of WWII, five idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the OSS, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. The men and women from very different backgrounds--a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer--all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of his or her own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly. Thus begins a dramatic cat-and-mouse game, as the group seeks to stay under the radar until a fatal misstep leads to the capture and the firing-squad execution of one of their team. But ... is everything as it seems, or is this one more elaborate act of spycraft?"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Read the <i>USA Today</i> bestseller from the author of <i>Roses</i>, a sumptuous, full-bodied, and emotional novel about five young spies embedded among the highest Nazi ranks in occupied Paris (Adriana Trigiani, <i>NYT</i> bestselling author of <i>Tony's Wife)</i>. </b><b><br></b>At the height of World War II, a handful of idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the government, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country.
