A Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and Amazon Charts best seller.

From the best-selling author of The Beekeeper’s Promise comes a gripping story of three young women faced with impossible choices. How will history - and their families - judge them?

Paris, 1940. With the city occupied by the Nazis, three young seamstresses go about their normal lives as best they can. But all three are hiding secrets. War-scarred Mireille is fighting with the Resistance; Claire has been seduced by a German officer; and Vivienne’s involvement is something she can’t reveal to either of them.

Two generations later, Claire’s English granddaughter Harriet arrives in Paris, rootless and adrift, desperate to find a connection with her past. Living and working in the same building on the Rue Cardinale, she learns the truth about her grandmother - and herself - and unravels a family history that is darker and more painful than she ever imagined.

In wartime, the three seamstresses face impossible choices when their secret activities put them in grave danger. Brought together by loyalty, threatened by betrayal, can they survive history’s darkest era without being torn apart?

This book was overall a decent read. I only gave 3 stars because I personally found it difficult to get lost in the book like I usually do.

Well Written

This is one of those books I should have read. I did not like the narrator, should have listened to a sample before I bought it. Otherwise a great book.

Loved the story, disliked the narrator.

I couldn’t wait to hear what happened next. I cried and I smiled. These women were absolutely amazing. Their stories are what shaped the world; during and after the war.
Narration was great.

Enjoyed every chapter

A beautifully researched book that took me into the lives of three hopeful young women who meet, live and love in Paris at the outset of European domination by Germany during WWII. I have been to Paris and enjoyed the scenes evoked by Fiona Valpy, who took great care in her descriptive writing. While this is fiction, it is obvious much of the detail is drawn from actual events. These are characters you care about.

This was a beautiful book and audiobook and though I hd a hard time telling the narrators apart sometimes they both were very good. The background of the war and Paris during the occupation kept things really moving and you loved every one of the characters.

The device of flipping back and forth between present day and the past has been used a lot and was a little hard to follow in the audiobook but it was a good mystery in both time periods anyway. Really fast-paced in most places and each woman was pretty well developed. It was a bookclub read and a good one.

This was beautiful and poetic and exciting!

This was a beautiful way to honor those women in Paris under the Nazi occupation. It was a lovely concept, we'll narrated and a beautiful story about friendship and perseverance.

Wonderful story.

My Nan was in the blitz during WW2 and I've always discussed generational trauma since receiving my nursing degree. I loved all 3 in this series but this one made me cry and feel elated with joy as well.

EXCELLENT

This book was very easy to get into from the moment it started I loved how the voice actors were. The story was fascinating and gripping throughout and I can tell that the author put a lot of research and work into the book.

I loved the book the moment it started.
