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?"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Fiction Valpy pbk Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Valpy   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Valpy   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
