Without Orders
by Martha Albrand
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company
Copyright: 1943
Book Club Edition

Martha Albrand looks beyond the headlines to tell the thrilling story of an American officer working with the Italian underground in Rome.

There always has to be a first man in any invasion. But he hadn't chosen to be the first. Others had chosen for him, and he woke with a clear recollection of fighting Italians in Africa but a somewhat dim idea of how he came to find himself among Italians on the outskirts of the Eternal City.

Among friendly Italians -- or were they friendly? Was the General telling the truth when he said: "There is one thing that unites us all -- our hatred of the German barbarians!" And how about the real motics of silver-haired Admiral Torlani, who listened with such understanding but had strange powers over the Fascist police? Even the Contessa, American-born and beautiful, but now mysteriously missing -- were her household and her circle in Rome real friends of freedom, or enemies in disguise?
