In this gripping WWII time-slip novel from the author whose books have been called "propulsive" and a "must-read" ( Publishers Weekly ), Grace Tonquin is an American Quaker who works tirelessly in Vichy France to rescue Jewish children from the Nazis. After crossing the treacherous Pyrenees, Grace returns home to Oregon with a brother and sister whose parents were lost during the war. Though Grace and her husband love Ã%lias and Marguerite as their own, echoes of Grace's past and trauma from the Holocaust tear the Tonquin family apart.
