After Paris
From the author of The Brighter the Light comes a haunting tale of hope that spans generations, intertwining the lives of three women who fight for survival in 1940s France and present-day Virginia.
At twenty-five, Ruby Nevins has already endured more than most. But after two years of battling cancer, she's warily determined to move forward. Researching a new project about a French actress, she soon uncovers an old diary that will change her life forever...
C cile, the "it" girl of early 1940s French cinema, vanished from Nazi-occupied Paris in 1942. Sylvia Rousseau, C cile's dressmaker and confidante, left that same year. Working to piece together the truth behind C cile's disappearance and Sylvia's extraordinary life, Ruby recognizes the women as kindred spirits. They risked their hearts and lives to aid the Resistance, and each day was a struggle to survive.
Ruby knows her cancer could come back, but she's learning to embrace the future rather than fear it. If C cile and Sylvia could live their lives in the shadow of death, so can Ruby. Because she knows there's so much life--and love--to fight for.
