This is the story of the heroism of Margaret Utinsky, who, against unbelievable and fantastic odds, for three years led an underground organization in the Philippines in a relentless and telling effort to aid American prisoners of war held by the Japanese. Dauntless and determined, she pushed into the background her own personal loss, faced the twin demons of physical and mental anguish, and "stood up" to circumstances and conditions which most of us find inconceivable. In her own words, she became "accustomed to doing the impossible." And gaunt prisoners behind walls and wires, guerrillas in the hills, the faithful in Manila-all felt the force of the courageous leadership of this small dynamo, for whom "something always happened."
