Book Companion
A moving and entrancing novel set in Paris during World
War II about an American woman, a dashing pilot, and a young
Jewish girl whose fates unexpectedly entwine. When Ruby first
marries the dashing Frenchman she meets in a coffee shop, she
pictures a life strolling arm in arm along French boulevards,
awash in the golden afternoon light. But it’s 1938, and war is
looming on the horizon. After the war begins, she becomes
involved in hiding Allied soldiers—including a charming RAF
pilot—who have landed in enemy territory. But her skills are
ultimately put to the test when she begins concealing her
twelve-year-old Jewish neighbor, Charlotte, whose family was
rounded up by the Gestapo. Ruby and Charlotte become a little
family, but as the German net grows tighter around Paris the
danger increases. No one is safe.
