Three ordinary girls : the remarkable story of three Dutch teenagers who became spies, saboteurs, Nazi assassins, and WWII heroes / Tim Brady.

Brady, Tim, 1955- (author.).

Summary:

"The astonishing true story of three fearless female resisters during WWII whose youth and innocence belied their extraordinary daring in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands. It also made them the underground's most invaluable commodity. Recruited as teenagers, Hannie Schaft, and Dutch sisters Truus and Freddie Oversteegen fulfilled their harrowing missions as spies, saboteurs, and Nazi assassins with remarkable courage, but their stories have remained largely unknown...until now."--Publisher's description.
