It’s 1944. The world is at war. Forces of evil hold Europe by the throat. After a mysterious massacre at sea, a ragtag alliance forms in the heart of occupied Belgium. A handful of Allied soldiers band together with a fearless group of female freedom fighters led by Charlotte Fontaine to carry out a mission no one else can. The target: unreachable. The clock: ticking. The consequences: apocalyptic. Charlotte: Resolute, hardened by loss, she’ll stop at nothing to save the one she loves. Fletcher: Sharp as a blade, he never wanted to lead, but now he’s the only one who can finish it. Louise: Radiant. Innocent. She dreams of peace, but the war won’t let her go. Rafael: Rebellious, reckless, romantic-and brought to his knees by love. With time running out, they’re hunted by a brilliant and relentless German officer hellbent on their destruction. In a world on fire, it’s the unbreakable bonds between the unlikely heroes that make all the difference. From the master storyteller of The Bronze Horseman comes a thrilling, darkly funny, and heartbreaking epic of love, brotherhood, and sacrifice-when every heartbeat could be your last.
