Frequently Asked Questions

What is "A Deadly Mission for the Resistance Girls" about?

The BRAND NEW instalment of the page-turning Resistance Girls series.

January 1943

A girl with nothing to lose…

Abandoned as a baby on a London street, Lexi Street has survived by trusting no one but herself. Now one of Major Stapleton’s most daring operatives, she’s used to working alone – and breaking every rule to get the job done. So when a mission goes dangerously close to disaster, Lexi is already racing against time to stop vital secrets falling into enemy hands.

But her next assignment may be her most dangerous yet.

A mission full of secrets…

Sent undercover to a quiet corner of the New Forest, Lexi must investigate missing military supplies, a suspicious Home Guard volunteer, and whispers of corruption at Southampton docks. Francis Cooper is everything she distrusts – moody, guarded, and hiding something. Yet the closer she watches him, the more her certainty begins to crack.

As stolen fuel, forged papers and a brutal local gang draw her deeper into a web of lies, Lexi must confront the past she thought she’d escaped – and the criminal world she once barely survived.

A choice that could cost everything

When her mission spirals out of control, Lexi finds herself caught between duty and something far more dangerous: trust. With enemy agents, ruthless gangsters and ghosts from her childhood closing in, she must decide who to save – and what she’s willing to sacrifice.

Because this time, going it alone might not be enough…
