Description

A Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and Amazon Charts best seller.

From the best-selling author of The Beekeeper’s Promise comes a gripping story of three young women faced with impossible choices. How will history - and their families - judge them?

Paris, 1940. With the city occupied by the Nazis, three young seamstresses go about their normal lives as best they can. But all three are hiding secrets. War-scarred Mireille is fighting with the Resistance; Claire has been seduced by a German officer; and Vivienne’s involvement is something she can’t reveal to either of them.

Two generations later, Claire’s English granddaughter Harriet arrives in Paris, rootless and adrift, desperate to find a connection with her past. Living and working in the same building on the Rue Cardinale, she learns the truth about her grandmother - and herself - and unravels a family history that is darker and more painful than she ever imagined.

In wartime, the three seamstresses face impossible choices when their secret activities put them in grave danger. Brought together by loyalty, threatened by betrayal, can they survive history’s darkest era without being torn apart?

Good overall, a few flaws

I am a seamstress familiar with the language of sewing, fabrics and fashion and though as a whole I enjoyed the story, I found some of the more descriptive parts relating to the fashion aspect of it to be too contrived. I felt that the author tried too hard, at times, to work the fashion descriptions in. Overall, it was a good storyline, so I tried not to dwell on that minor annoyance.
The performance of the two narrators was alright, but certainly not the best I have heard on Audible. The one narrator should have used more denture glue before she read.
Despite these issues, I still think it’s a worthwhile listen, especially to those interested in women’s roles in the Resistance during WWII.
