| Summary |
Nazi occupation has stolen much from Brigitte Durand. Family. Freedom. Hope for a future. Forced to turn her home into a Germans-only brothel to survive, Brigitte clings to patriotism by sneaking food to the French Resistance and the downed airmen they're hiding nearby. When American fighter pilot Tom Jaeger is shot down and picked up by the resistance, he becomes the linchpin in their plan to leverage Brigitte's sympathy. By posing as a German officer, Tom can smuggle out critical Intel she acquires from other soldiers about the nearby bridges, whose capture and defense will be crucial to Allied forces. D-Day looms, and everyone knows invasion is imminent. But so is treachery. When loyalties are betrayed, the life of one American pilot jeopardizes everything. He becomes more important than the mission to a man who cannot bear to lose another agent, and to a woman who is more than just a prostitute, who finally realizes her courage could change history.--From back cover. |
