About This Item
Sydney: Hachette Australia, 2022. 1st ed.. Paperback thick octavo, very good condition, minor edgewear. 425 pp. This novel by Australian writer Natasha Lester is the story of a young woman trying to forget her part in World War 2. It is 1943. After Alix works in advertising in New York, she finds herself recruited into a fledgling intelligence group. Enlisted as a spy, she is sent to Europe and asked to get close to a Nazi who might be willing to help the Allied forces. It is 1946. After the war, Alix moves to Paris to run the Service de la Presse for the yet-to-be-launched House of Christian Dior. A figure from her past reappears and threatens to destroy her future. Can she right the wrongs of the past and bring him to justice?. This story moves from the dangerous intrigue-filled rooms in Switzerland where elites from both sides mixed and schemed during the war, to the glamorous halls of the House of Dior in the golden age of French fashion and journalism. First edition.
