Code Name Verity

Maddie meets with Engel one last time. She tells Engel that Julie is dead and asks questions about Julie’s time in prison. From the beginning, Engel was on Julie’s side. When Julie was captured, she had the location in the town hall’s records for the building plans of the Ormaie Gestapo HQ written on her palm. Engel rubbed out the evidence using Julie’s scarf after she was knocked out to stop her fighting her captors.

When Julie finished her narrative, she was completely exhausted. Engel asked Julie what she should do with the location of the plans and her narrative. Julie told her. Anna had von Linden’s landlady steal Julie’s narrative and tell von Linden that she used the paper to light fires. Anna had a key made for the back door, which she gives to Maddie. Anna has asked for a transfer back to Berlin; she’ll be leaving in a couple of weeks. As they finish talking, Captain von Linden appears, and Maddie is forced to shake his hand. She vows to complete Julie’s mission, determined to avenge her friend’s death.

The next time we see Maddie, she is in England under house arrest, awaiting interrogation by the Bloody Machiavellian Intelligence Officer.
