About this ebook

'A moving novel of strength and resistance in the face of evil but also an inspiring journey of resilience after loss' Erin Litteken Paris, 1940: Two sisters separated by the Nazis... After a devastating attack, Justine and Ève Beaufort find themselves on opposite sides of the war, both in their beloved Paris. But can they ever find their way back to each other?

It was the day that changed everything. When the Nazis broke into our home, destroying everything, taking our home and our security. I thought it couldn’t get worse. But then they also took my sister.

After that day nothing was the same. I thought I’d never see her again. I thought she was lost to me forever. I joined the Resistance, vowing to fight against the evil German army with every last spark of fire in my body. Nothing and nobody can stop me.

Until I catch a glimpse of a woman who looks just like my sister. Alive. But this is not the sweet darling girl I once knew. This is a platinum blonde happily conversing with a terrifying Gestapo officer. No longer my sister. But a traitor.

And I know what I must now do...

Gripping, heartbreaking, historical fiction, set in Nazi-occupied Paris – perfect for fans of The Nightingale and All the Light We Cannot See.
