X-WR-CALDESC:Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein\n\nIf you pick up this book
 \, it will be some time before you put your dog-eared\, tear-stained copy 
 back down. Wein succeeds on three fronts: historical verisimilitude\, gut-
 wrenching mystery\, and a first-person voice of such confidence and flair 
 that the protagonist might become a classic character if only we knew what
  to call her. Alternately dubbed Queenie\, Eva\, Katharina\, Verity\, or J
 ulie depending on which double-agent operation she's involved in\, she pen
 s her tale as a confession while strapped to a chair and recovering from t
 he latest round of Gestapo torture. The Nazis want the codes that Julie me
 morized as a wireless operator before crash-landing in France\, and she su
 pplies them\, but along the way also tells of her fierce friendship with M
 addie\, a British pilot whose quiet gumption was every bit as impressive a
 s Julie's brash fearlessness. Though delivered at knifepoint\, Julie's nar
 rative is peppered with dark humor and minor acts of defiance\, and the te
 nsion that builds up between both past and present story lines is practica
 lly unbearable. A surprise change of perspective hammers home the devastat
 ing final third of the book\, which reveals that Julie was even more coura
 geous than we believed. Both crushingly sad and hugely inspirational\, thi
 s plausible\, unsentimental novel will thoroughly move even the most cynic
 al of readers.--Kraus\, Daniel Copyright 2010 Booklist\n\nBooks are availa
