On one terrifying night in France, a mother searches for her daughter—and meets a woman with a story of her own to tell: “A gripping tale.” —Sunday Post After her teenage daughter, Lizzie, disappeared four years ago, Kurtiz Ross’s life—and marriage—fell apart. After all this time, it’s difficult to be optimistic. But an unexpected sighting has brought Kurtiz to Paris, where she waits anxiously for her ex-husband to arrive with Lizzie in tow—until the city erupts in chaos. Terrorists have struck a theater, a stadium, and other spots crowded with Friday night revelers. In the midst of the emergency, an older woman reaches out to Kurtiz, keeping her distracted with a story from her own troubled past in postwar Provence. As her heart veers wildly between hope and horror, Kurtiz learns that some things—like the necessity of courage—are the same in any era . . . “A story to savour, complete with wonderful settings stretching from Paris . . . to the glorious countryside of southern France.” —Dinah Jefferies, bestselling author of The Tea Planter’s Wife “A great and compassionate writer.” —The Guardian “Mesmerising, haunting and extraordinarily relevant.” —Lovereading
