A heart-wrenching wartime story of courage and resistance, from bestseller Siobhan Daiko
1944
Bologna, Italy, and the streets are crawling with German soldiers. Nineteen-year-old Leila Venturi is shocked into joining the Resistance after her beloved best friend Rebecca, the daughter of a prominent Jewish businessman, is ruthlessly deported to a concentration camp.
1981
Exchange student Rhiannon Hughes arrives in Bologna and meets Leila, her landlady. Soon, Rhiannon finds herself being drawn into a web of intrigue. Leila's nephew seems to be interested in a far-right group, but how is the nefarious leader connected to Leila?
As dark secrets emerge from the past, Rhiannon is faced with a terrible choice. Will she take her courage into both hands and risk everything?
Perfect for fans of Rhys Bowen, Fiona Valpy, and Victoria Hislop
