Kitty held her husband close to her chest, covering his beloved body with her own. She called for help, but none came. She stared down at the face she loved so well. Edgar! Don't go, my darling, not now. Not after all we've been through... please don't leave me here alone...
1944. Beautiful American Kitty Larsson knows better than most that fighting the Nazis comes at a price. She's spent years working undercover as an agent for the British and knows that doing what is right could cost her everything...
When Kitty is captured during a mission and her true identity is revealed, she learns her beloved husband, Edgar, has gone missing. The Gestapo tell her they have him, and that his life is in her hands. If she doesn't cooperate, he will die and her worst fears will be realized. If they are telling the truth, Kitty's secrets might be enough to save the man she loves... But what if they are lying?
Fueled by her desire to do what is right, but also to save the man she loves, Kitty knows that she won't be able to rest until she can escape and find Edgar. Because surely, somewhere out there, he is still alive...
As the war rages, Kitty tries to think of a plan. Surely this isn't where it all ends? She needs to know whether Edgar is safe, and to hold him in her arms once again. But, to do that, will Kitty finally have to make the ultimate sacrifice?
An absolutely unputdownable, gripping and powerful story about love, courage and doing what is right in the midst of the darkness of World War 2. Perfect for fans of The Nightingale, My Name is Eva and All the Light We Cannot See.
