CODE NAME VERITY By: Elizabeth Wein Ages 14 on up.

CODE NAME VERITY  By: Elizabeth Wein
When "Verity" is arrested by the Gestapo, she knows she doesn't stand a chance. A secret agent caught in enemy territory, she is given one simple choice: write down everything she knows about the British Was Effort or face the firing squad. So pen in hand, she begins to weave the story of her past, how she become best friends with a pilot named Maddie, and why she ended up leaving Maddie in the wreckage of their plane. Verity writes page after page, each word a fight for her life. But trading her secrets might not be enough to save her from the enemy. Ages 14 and up. $16.99 Hyperion  Reviewed by Maggie age 17.
