In 2010 the body of Eileen Nearne was found in a flat in Torquay. With no known friends or relatives, a council burial was arranged. Further investigation revealed that she was one of 40 women sent into France by the Special Operations Executive, Churchill's top secret wartime spook organisation. This is her story.
