SMART, AGILE, HEADSTRONG... American Hattie is a woman born into privilege in bilingual New Orleans in 1914 who strains at the conventional prejudices against women in early 20th century United States.
She studies medicine at the Sorbonne in Paris, completing her degree as Hitler's Nazis invade France. Hattie fears she will die, so writes her Louisiana fiance and breaks their engagement. With little hope and forced to fend for herself, Hattie accepts a marriage proposal from a former beau now an officer in the French Army, as her only way out of Paris.
She learns to love her husband, Luke DeValcourt, then loses him to a Nazi prison. Hattie joins the French Resistance to help rescue Luke, then they escape across the Channel to England
Trouble that she can't see takes her to an emotional brink. Hattie believes she'll prevail, but she has a lot to learn...if she lives. It helps that she is more tomboy than debutante, with a trained intellect that helps her keep her balance.
Life back home in Louisiana has more pitfalls and dangers that threaten Hattie's life, her love, and her livelihood. Will she prevail or will she suffer even more terrible consequences?
