520 "An uncovered family secret sets one woman on the journey
of a lifetime through the history of Britain's WWII spy
network and glamorous 1930s Paris in an effort to
understand her past, save her family, and claim her
future"--|cProvided by publisher.
520 "Caroline Payne thinks it is just another day at work when
she receives a call from Mat Hammon, a doctoral candidate,
who has uncovered a dark and scandalous family secret: her
British great-aunt defected to the Nazis to marry her
German lover. The letters tell a different story. In
search of answers, Caroline flies to London to search her
grandmother's diaries and her aunt's letters. In them she
discovers the "Waite girls" and a time of peace and luxury
in the interwar years that is beyond anything she ever
imagined. But the buoyant tone quickly changes as the
sisters grow older, fall in love with the same man, and
one leaves home to join the glamourous art scene of 1930s
Paris-all amid the rumblings of war. But history won't let
its secrets go so easily.The more Caroline learns, the
more questions she has. Together Caroline and Mat work to
dig out answers, uncovering stories of spies and love, of
family rifts, and of one fateful evening in 1941. Will the
truth they uncover heal the decades-old family wounds, or
will they tear the family even further apart?"--|cProvided
