Under the black wings of World War II, passion dares to defy threats and soar to the heights.
In a troubled Paris, a casual encounter on the banks of the Seine sparks a love that faces the coming turmoil. Hearts Beneath the Broken Sky introduces Jeanne Adler, a quick-witted French secretary who picks up on the hidden secrets in whispered conversation, and Oliver, a British diplomat dealing with secrets and perilous collaborations.
With gripping storytelling and rigorous historical authenticity, James K. Hawkins delivers a memorable portrait of love tested in one of humanity's darkest moments.
Emotions and hardships circulate from the bohemian glow of Montmartre and the steps of the Sacré-Coeur to the dark corridors of diplomacy. This novel pays homage to the men and women subjected to the yoke of the Nazi regime, who risked everything to feel, fight, and live.
With rich characters, elegant pacing, and emotionally resonant scenes, Hearts Beneath the Broken Sky proves that even in the face of the greatest misfortune, lovers still dare to dream.
Readers of Kristin Hannah, Anthony Doerr, and Kate Quinn in particular will find a story here that will linger in their minds and hearts long after the last page.
