A tragic role-playing story game about the heroic women spies of the SOE in WW2 France. The game starts with each of you captured by the Nazis, facing interrogation and death at their hands. Together as players you tell the lonely stories of these brave women through their deployment, missions, and eventual capture, and discover their lives through flashbacks. Playing cards are used to determine whether the focus of each scene is love, misfortune, success, or death. Each scene involves other characters from that individual’s life — friends, enemies, and bystanders — all of whom are played by other players around the table. Characters introduced in one scene may return in future scenes, for good or ill. The game ends with a final session where the players discover who lives, who dies, who tells their stories.
