Xli CHRISTINE on the night of 15 June, by a kitchen porter from the Reform Club. I was saddened by the sordid implications of the death of my mysterious stewardess; but I was too busy arranging my new life to give her shade more than a passing va/e. The following day, however, the humble news-item had exploded into headlines. My stewardess was indeed no ordinary woman. Born into a noble Polish family, she had been a British secret agent in Poland, Hungary and France during the Second World War. She was a heroine of the French Resistance, and for her work in the field she had been awarded the George Medal, the OBE and the Croix de Guerre with Silver star. The newspapers were full of sensational stories of Christine Granville’s legendary exploits and bravery. I was angry with myself at having missed the opportunity of getting first-hand information to write a long-delayed book on the anatomy of courage. I blamed myself for not having tried harder to get through the barrier of reticence with which Christine Granville protected herself from importunate questions. | thought a great deal about Christine with her grace, her golden skin and her shiny nose.
