Synopsis

"She once saved my life. She now wants to destroy it."

Summer 1942, Nazi-occupied France. A young and frightened resistance fighter sits on a train. Opposite him, a middle-aged woman. During the course of the next hour, this woman will save the young man’s life.

Paris, 1968, that young man is now France’s most famous music conductor, adored and feted wherever he goes. And he’s fallen in love. He is happy.

But he never forgets the woman on the train. So when, unexpectedly, he receives a desperate letter from her, begging him to come to her aid, he gladly offers to return the favour.

But the woman hides a dark and terrible secret, which, if exposed, threatens to destroy them both.

Torn between the woman he loves and the woman who saved him, his life rapidly spirals out of control. Why did the Woman on the Train help him all those years ago, and who, exactly, is she?

Historical fiction with heart and drama.

Part of The Love and War Series, ten novels set during the 20th century's darkest years. Can be read in any order.
