Maria (Treasure Trail)

Maria was an Italian woman who worked as a maid; in this capacity, she also worked as a spy for Giovanni's partisans during World War II.
In the summer of 1944, Maria was working at Villa Ranuchi, headquarters of Hermann Goering's Special Service Division in occupied Italy. When the Nazis returned with paintings looted from the nearby village of Borosini, Maria reported to Giovanni that they had been taken to Villa Ranuchi.
Some days later, Maria learned that the stolen paintings were shortly due to be transported to Berlin in Germany by rail. With this intelligence, the Fourth Doctor was able to put into action Operation Stop Thief, an effort by the partisans to get the paintings and treasures back. (COMIC: Treasure Trail)
