The Last Secret Agent, Pippa LaTour with Jude Dobson. St. Martins Press, 2025, 304 pages.
Thank you to St. Martins Press and NetGalley for an advance readers copy of this book.
Pippa Latour had a life of tragedy and adventure even before she became a secret agent for the British in WWII France.
Though she never wanted to speak of her experiences, and did not, in her old age her children learned she had some role in WWII, and she finally opened up and worked with writer Jude Dobson on this memoir. She died at the age of 102, just before its publication, as she hoped.
This is a book to become absorbed in and from which to learn little-known information about both WWII France and the kind of vital work that was rarely reported.
