Summary: I loved learning about female journalists in WWII, but I didn’t connect with the characters, especially their romantic entanglements.
Reporting from a hospital camp during WWII, journalist Jane is content to work within the limitations imposed on female reporters until photographer Liz shows up. Liz is determined to get to the front and to be the first member of the press to report the liberation of Paris.

Both women become close to British photographer Fletcher, who helps them evade military police as they risk their lives following the front. Read more »
