With us for this episode is writer Kathryn J. Atwood, arthor of Women Heroes of World War II and editor of Code Name Pauline: Memoirs of a World War II Special Agent and it is the later book we will be discussing. The protagonist, Pearl, Code Named Pauline, came from humble beginnings to do her part as an SOE agent, behind enemies lines in Occupied France, to thwart the Nazi’s before and after D-Day. For all those looking for strong female role models, Mrs. Atwood’s books more than fit the bill beautifully.
