Spyglass: The Autobiography of Helene Deschamps Adams (1995)

"Deschamps Adams saved American fliers from capture and Jews from execution by the Nazis and played a role in secret preparations for Allied invasions of France."

"Using the code name Anick, she brazenly posed as a secretary at the Vichy headquarters of the Milice, the French equivalent of the Gestapo, and was able to steal the records of hundreds of people, including Jews, Resistance members and ordinary citizens who had been marked for death or deportation to concentration camps."
