 n group on Monday the 27th! February's selection is "The Alice Network" by
  Kate Quinn. Copies of the book discussion selections are available to che

 upplies last.\nFrom Amazon.com:\n\n\nIn an enthralling new historical nove
 l from national best-selling author Kate Quinn\, two women - a female spy 
 recruited to the real-life Alice Network in France during World War I and 
 an unconventional American socialite searching for her cousin in 1947 - ar
 e brought together in a mesmerizing story of courage and redemption.\nIt's
  1947. In the chaotic aftermath of World War II\, American college girl Ch
 arlie St. Clair is pregnant\, unmarried\, and on the verge of being thrown
  out of her very proper family. She's also nursing a desperate hope that h
 er beloved cousin Rose\, who disappeared in Nazi-occupied France during th
 e war\, might still be alive. So when Charlie's parents banish her to Euro
 pe to have her "little problem" taken care of\, Charlie breaks free and he
 ads to London\, determined to find out what happened to the cousin she lov
 es like a sister.\nIt's 1915. A year into the Great War\, Eve Gardiner bur
 ns to join the fight against the Germans and unexpectedly gets her chance 
 when she's recruited to work as a spy. Sent into enemy-occupied France\, s
 he's trained by the mesmerizing Lili\, the "Queen of Spies"\, who manages 
 a vast network of secret agents right under the enemy's nose.\nThirty year
 s later\, haunted by the betrayal that ultimately tore apart the Alice Net
 work\, Eve spends her days drunk and secluded in her crumbling London hous
 e. Until a young American barges in uttering a name Eve hasn't heard in de
 cades and launches them both on a mission to find the truth...no matter wh
 ere it leads.\n\n
