THE OCCUPATION.
THE RESISTANCE.
THE WORLD AT WAR.
On May 10, 1940, the Nazis begin their march across Europe, and within
weeks, France has fallen. At first, Nicolette's world seems more or less
the same despite the occupation. But as the months pass, the Third Reich
tightens its hold on France and it becomes clear just what is at stake.
Nicolette is drawn into a growing resistance movement, determined to do
her part to fight back. It's a deadly secret she'll have to keep from
everyone, including her family. Nicolette's own father works for local
law enforcement, which is now under Nazi control, and who knows what
might happen if anyone found out she joined the Resistance. But as
Hitler's empire grows, no one can escape the horrors of war. Including
Nicolette.
One night, she vanishes without a trace, taken from the street by Nazi
soldiers and declared an enemy of the state. Soon, Nicolette finds
herself confronting the very heart of Hitler's plans, bearing witness
not just to the atrocities, but also to the courage, bravery, and hope
that can emerge in even the darkest times. And it is in these small but
powerful moments that Nicolette realizes her greatest weapon against the
Nazis: to live, so she can tell the world the truth of what happened.
But can one girl survive what was designed to destroy so many?
