Yvonne Rudellat is a divorced woman with a grown daughter with nothing to do to help the war effort until she is approached to help with explosives in France.

We follow Yvonne through her training and her bravery as one of the only women in this special operations group.

Of course, the men thought she wouldn’t be capable of doing the same job they do, but she proved them wrong.

It did get a bit confusing and dragged at times because there were so many characters and because of the back and forth and the details about the operations.

It was well written but didn’t really hold my interest even though it got more personable toward the end and less about the operations even though it was based on real people.

Even though it was not an enjoyable read for me, we do need to thank these brave men and women for their unwavering efforts to fight for France and risk their lives as they resisted the Germans.

THE WOMAN WITH NO NAME will be enjoyed by historical fiction fans, fans of strong women based on a real person, and details about war operations. 3/5

Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
