The epic saga of a young Frenchman deeply involved with the British SOE and the French Resistance during World War II.

This graphic work recounts the actions of Bob Maloubier and other agents of the French Section of Britain's Special Operations Executive (SOE) during the Nazi Occupation: commando operations, sabotage, parachuting, transport, training in guerrilla tactics and handling weapons, managing teams, skirmishes, and assassinations. Early in the war, Churchill founded the SOE to "go and set Europe ablaze" and aid Resistance activities all over the continent, especially in France.
