A Board Game Holds Keys to Prisoners' Escape
Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this series celebrates the
unsung heroes--the heroines of WWII.
After the Nazis started the bombing blitz of England, Beryl Clarke puts
her college on hold to return to Leeds, care for her mother, and work as
a secretary at the Waddington game company. While she endures the war at
home, her brother James fights the enemy in the air. When he is shot
down, injured, and captured, James reunites with a former college friend
American POW Kenneth Bordelon, and they plan to escape the Nazi prison
camp. Beryl knows there is a board game with escape plans being
delivered to POWs by the Red Cross. But how can she let them know about
the game's secret without revealing the information to the enemy?
