About this listen

She couldn’t run. But she could hide—and win.

Virginia Hall was the spy the Nazis couldn’t catch. Operating behind enemy lines with a wooden leg she nicknamed “Cuthbert,” Hall organized sabotage missions, trained the French Resistance, and sent life-saving intelligence to the Allies. Despite being hunted by the Gestapo, she returned to France again and again—risking everything to liberate a country that wasn’t her own.

Virginia Hall: The Limping Lady Who Outwitted the Nazis tells the astonishing story of an American woman who defied stereotypes, expectations, and death. Historian David G. Stone vividly brings her legacy to life, showing how grit, wit, and determination can change the course of history.

Perfect for listeners of WWII history, female heroes, and true spy thrillers.
