Estara’s comments from the Code Name Verity Spoiler Friendly Zone group.

Having Julie die because of Nazi torture or being shot by them during the escape attempt probably would have been more realistic, but because Maddie had to do it their friendship is highlighted and the lengths to which they go for each other.

I see this as a book about female friendship against all odds (war, class, torture, etc.) first and foremost - the likelihood that a Gestapo Officer would let Julie ramble on and on about her past to get at bits of data is very low in reality, as well - I see that as a brilliant plot device.
