An aristocratic French family, a legendary chÃ¢teau, and buried secrets with the power to destroy two generations torn between duty and desire.

La CÃ´te dâ€™Azur, 1998: In the sun-dappled south of France, Emilie de la MartiniÃ¨res, the last of her gilded line, inherits her childhood home, a magnificent chÃ¢teau and vineyard. With the property comes a mountain of debtâ€”and almost as many questions...

Paris, 1944: A bright, young British office clerk, Constance Carruthers, is sent undercover to Paris to be part of Churchillâ€™s Special Operations Executive during the climax of the Nazi occupation. Separated from her contacts in the Resistance, she soon stumbles into the heart of a prominent family who regularly entertain elite members of the German military even as they plot to liberate France. But in a city rife with collaborators and rebels, Constanceâ€™s most difficult decision may be determining whom to trust with her heart.

As Emilie discovers what really happened to her family during the war and finds a connection to Constance much closer than she suspects, the chÃ¢teau itself may provide the clues that unlock the mysteries of her past, present, and future. Here is a dazzling novel of intrigue and passion from one of the worldâ€™s most beloved storytellers.
