NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • New York socialite Caroline
Ferriday has her hands full with her post at the French
consulate and a new love on the horizon. But Caroline’s world is
forever changed when Hitler’s army invades Poland in September
1939—and then sets its sights on France. An ocean away from
Caroline, Kasia Kuzmerick, a Polish teenager, senses her
carefree youth disappearing as she is drawn deeper into her role
as courier for the underground resistance movement. In a tense
atmosphere of watchful eyes and suspecting neighbors, one false
move can have dire consequences. For the ambitious young German
doctor, Herta Oberheuser, an ad for a government medical
position seems her ticket out of a desolate life. Once hired,
though, she finds herself trapped in a male-dominated realm of
Nazi secrets and power. The lives of these three women are set
on a collision course when the unthinkable happens and Kasia is
sent to Ravensbrück, the notorious Nazi concentration camp for
women.
