Two weeks before D-day, the French Resistance attacks a chateau containing a telephone exchange vital to German communications - but the building is heavily guarded, and the attack fails disastrously. Flick Clairet, a young British secret agent, proposes a daring new plan: she will parachute into France with an all-woman team known as the Jackdaws, and they will penetrate the chateau in disguise. But, unknown to Flick, Rommel has assigned a brilliant, ruthless intelligence colonel, Dieter Franck, to crush the Resistance. And Dieter is on Flick's trail....

D-Day is approaching. They don’t know where or when, but the Germans know it’ll be soon, and for Felicity "Flick" Clariet, the stakes have never been higher. A senior agent in the ranks of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) responsible for sabotage, Flick has survived to become one of Britain’s most effective operatives in Northern France. She knows that the Germans’ ability to thwart the Allied attack depends upon their lines of communications, and in the days before the invasion, no target is of greater strategic importance than the largest telephone exchange in Europe.

El día D se acerca. Todavía no se sabe dónde ni cuándo, pero los alemanes están convencidos de que será pronto. Felicity Clariet, Flick, es una de las agentes más valiosas de la unidad encargada de las operaciones de sabotaje que opera en el norte de Francia. A Flick le consta que el éxito del desembarco aliado depende de que las líneas de comunicación con Berlín no funcionen. Y es en Sainte-Cécile, cerca de Reims, donde se encuentra el mayor centro de comunicaciones de la Francia ocupada, alojado en un antiguo castillo del siglo XVII.
