"Though the story is fiction, readers will learn much about what European women experienced
during World War II."
Church Libraries
While the France they have known is crumbling around them, two courageous women face danger and betrayal
under Hitler's tyranny.
Giselle Munier and Jean Thornton are more like sisters than cousins, having spent many of their summers together,
but with the outbreak of World War II, both women's lives take a dramatic turn.
Jean joins the American Red Cross and is assigned to a military hospital in Wales. Meanwhile, Giselle, active in
the French Resistance, has been betrayed and arrested by the Nazis. Though her compatriots are able to rescue
and hide her, Giselle remains in grave danger because she knows the identity of other Resistance leaders. Jean
is determined to try smuggling Giselle to freedom. While the Allies prepare to invade Europe, she makes intricate
plans for a parachute jump into occupied France. For such a plan to succeed, however, both women will need to
summon superhuman strength and courage.
Elyse Larson is an author, photographer, and writing instructor who has six published novels. She and her husband live in Gresham, Oregon. They have three children and eleven grandchildren.
Vanessa Benjamin, a native of the British Isles, graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London. She has performed on stage, as a voice-over artist, and as an audiobook narrator. "I really love playing all the parts when I narrate a book. It's an adventure, a challenge, and above all I feel that I learn something new with each book I read."
