Synopsis
FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE GHOST SHIP
1942, Nazi-occupied France. Sandrine, a spirited and courageous nineteen-year-old, finds herself drawn into a Resistance network in Carcassonne - codenamed 'Citadel' - a group of ordinary women who are prepared to risk everything for what is right. When she meets Raoul, they discover a shared passion for the cause, for their homeland, and for each other.
But in a world where the enemy now lies in every shadow - where neighbour informs on neighbour; where friends disappear without warning and often without trace - love can demand the highest price of all . . .
'A thrilling adventure and a truly epic love story' The Times
'A deeply satisfying literary adventure, brimming with romance, treachery and cliff-hangers' Observer
