The Tiger Claw by Shauna Singh Baldwin

4.0

Charming, heavily-fictionalised account of the adventures of real life spy Noor Inayat Khan, a radio operator working for the British government in the French Resistance during WWII. In the novel, Noor describes herself as a member of many tribes, and the depiction of her experiences amid the adventure and danger of being a spy in WWII is informed by that position. A very interesting look at the attitudes and cultures that thrived during--and arguably, helped produce--a world war.

(Notable for being a book about "heroic" Allied spies in WWII that don't act as if 'anti-immigrant' and antisemitic sentiments were only held by Nazis.)
