The biography reveals the thrilling life story of a Canadian actress who went from dancing on Broadway to daring acts of survival in WWII.

The process of uncovering the story of Mona Parsons took almost as many twists and turns as the life it was piecing together. This book traces the author's own journey as she follows clues from Wolfville, Canada, to New York, Europe and back, leaping across oceans and decades with imagination and grace.
