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?

I know we’re all a bit tired of the 2 separate stories from present day to past, but this book does an amazing job to connect them for multiple, deep, and inspiring reasons—I actually looked forward to each part of the story to develop in both decades!
The narration of the present day character, Harriett, was perfectly executed, but the narration of the past was just okay. She sometimes had awkwardly long pauses and spoke super slow on other parts, but it didn’t ruin the story for me, and it was only here or there. That was the only fault I could find in this audible book.
My advice: READ IT. You will not be disappointed! It’s beautiful!
My new FAV book!
