Synopsis

In the heart of war-torn France, Isabelle Seauve’s resolve is tested beyond measure. After her father sacrifices his life to protect her involvement in the French Resistance, Isabelle becomes more dedicated to hiding Jewish children in and near Sisteron. Yet that mission grows even more perilous when she discovers a traitor within the Resistance ranks. As the shadow of betrayal looms, Isabelle’s world collides with that of US Army Chaplain Peter Christensen, who carries the emotional scars of his service in North Africa. Together, they face the brutal reality of war as the Allied invasion of Provence unfolds. Amid the chaos, fifteen-year-old René Amblard narrowly escapes a devastating German attack that claims the lives of his mother and their fellow maquis fighters. With a Jewish orphan girl at his side, René seeks out his cousin Isabelle for refuge. As the bombs begin to fall, this unlikely group of heroes must first find freedom in their souls before they can rebuild what has been destroyed. A master of evocative historical fiction, Elizabeth Musser takes you to Southern France for an emotionally gripping World War II tale you won’t soon forget.
