In the lawlessness of post-World War II France, a resilient young woman fights to survive and make a living, no matter the cost--from the New York Times bestselling author of Three Hours in Paris and the Aimée Leduc series After Libération, spring 1945: Seventeen-year-old Huguette Faure is a survivor. The war has taken everything from her--both her parents and her sense of safety. Now, pregnant and on the lam, she cannot return to her childhood home in Paris. Forced to reinvent herself, she must outrun her father's enemies, who want her dead. After narrowly avoiding jail time--thanks to the help of a kindhearted police officer named Claude Leduc--Huguette lands a job assisting a legendary film director. As her role develops from helping him with chores to cooking his books, she sees an opportunity to break free from the ghosts of her past once and for all. In this big-hearted story of resilience, New York Times bestselling author Cara Black offers a wholly original depiction of postwar France--and introduces Claude Leduc, who decades later will inspire his granddaughter, Aimée, to become a private investigator.
