Publisher's summary

The last time Valerie was in Paris, she was three years old, running from the Nazis, away from the only home she had ever known.

Now as a young woman all alone in the world, Valerie must return to Paris, to the bookshop and her sole surviving relative, her grandfather Vincent, the only person who knows the truth about what happened to her parents. As she gets to know grumpy, taciturn Vincent again, she hears a tragic story of Nazi-occupied Paris, a doomed love affair, and a mother willing to sacrifice everything for her beloved daughter.

Can Valerie and Vincent help each other to mend the wounds of the past? Valerie isn't after a fairytale ending, she only wants the truth. But what is the one devastating secret that Vincent is determined to keep from his granddaughter?

It was good

It was a good book. Well written and well narrated. The story line did bore me a little at times. I found my mind drifting and I’d have to force myself to keep listening. But that wasn’t true for the whole book. Once it got about halfway through, it because very interesting. Over all I enjoyed it. Just wasn’t my most favorite is all.

Well written and told story

I really enjoyed listening to this book. The narrator did a great job and was easy to
listen to. I have a lot of fiction and nonfiction WW2 books on audible and this was a nice change of pace story. I highly recommend.
