Summary: France, 1939. When a German captain requisitions Vianne's home, she and her daughter must live with the enemy or lose everything. Without food or money or hope, as danger escalates all around them, she is forced to make one impossible choice after another to keep her family alive. Vianne's rebellious sister, Isabelle, meets and falls in love with Gäetan, a partisan who believes the French can fight the Nazis from within France. But when he betrays her, Isabelle joins the Resistance and never looks back, risking her life time and again to save others.  Two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embark on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in Nazi-occupied, war-torn France―a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women.
