Talks about her book

The extraordinary life of Vera Atkins- the woman who parachuted female secret agents into occupied France during the war, and then in 1945 made it her personal mission to track down the missing agents and find out the awful truth of what had happened to them.

Martha talks to Sarah Helm, the author of A Life In Secrets: The story of Vera Atkins and SOE's lost agents.
