“The invasion was coming. And I was the one who would decide who lived to see it.”

November 1943. The network is burned. The survivors are scattered. And Agent 6732 carries the names of the dead.

After the disaster at Vierzon, Jane flees south to Limoges with what remains of her team. The mission is the same—sabotage German railways, prepare for an invasion no one knows when to expect—but everything else has changed. She is no longer learning the cost of resistance. She is paying it.

In Limoges, a larger network waits: more fighters, more resources, more risk. The Maquis are growing bolder in the hills. London demands results. And the Germans are tightening their grip on everyone Jane has learned to trust.

As winter turns to spring and the invasion draws closer, Jane finds herself making the decisions she once watched others make. Who goes on the mission. Who stays behind. Who is trusted—and who is expendable.
