商品簡介
1944. After the fall of Russia and the failed D-Day landings, a German counterattack lands on British soil. Within a month, half of Britain is occupied. The seat of British government has fled to Worcester, Churchill to Canada. A network of British resistance cells is all that is left to defy the German army.
Against this backdrop of an alternative WWII, Resistance opens with Sarah Lewis, a twenty-six-year old farmer's wife, waking to find that her husband, Tom, has disappeared. She is not alone, as all the other women in the Welsh border valley of Olchon wake to find their husbands gone. With this sudden and unexplained absence, the women regroup as an isolated, all-female community and wait, hoping for news.
Later, a German patrol arrives in the valley, their mission a mystery. As the realities of the war close in on this isolated community, its fragile state of harmony begins to unravel. When a severe winter forces the two groups together, a tenuous mutual dependency develops and Sarah begins a faltering acquaintance with the patrol's commanding officer, Albrecht Wolfram. And it is to Sarah that he reveals the true purpose of the mission.
