About This Item
New York: HarperCollins Publishers, 2016. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 1st Printing Stated: First Edition. In addition, contains complete number line including number one. Hard cover in fine condition with cream colored boards, deep maroon spine cloth, and gold gilt spine lettering. Text block clean and tight. No markings noted. Dust jacket in likewise fine condition. * From the jacket, ""Time Magazine called her ""the Mata Hari of Minnesota""; OSS chief ""Wild Bill"" Donovan called her ""the greatest unsung heroine of the war."" But for decades, the extent of Betty Pack's achievements as an agent during World War II, first for Britain's M16 and then for America's OSS, remained classified. Now, in 'The Last Goodnight,' the truth about this femme fatale--her dangerous liaisons and death-defying missions, the heartaches that haunted her life, her vital contributions to the Allied victory--forms a narrative more thrilling than fiction.""
