From USA Today bestselling author Gayle Callen comes a fascinating historical novel of three courageous young women who aid a desperate British spy during the German occupation of Guernsey Island in World War II.
Three British women dare to defy the Nazis … And emerge victorious.
In 1940, Germany seizes control of Guernsey without a fight – but not without resistance. Innocent young teacher Catherine is forced to house a German officer. Shrewd waitress Betty seeks to elude the persistent Nazi determined to conquer her. And courageous nurse Helen cares for her patients – both British and German – while hiding a British spy in her seaside cottage. Their fight against the injustices being enacted on their island home brings the women, the spy, and their enemies together in one night that will change all of their lives forever.

“It’s true, dear. Someone is trying to kill me. Oh, how lovely, you brought chocolates.”
I gaped at my grandmother, Helen Coleridge, lying in her hospital bed. She looked smaller than the last time I’d seen her, with a cast on her leg and a bruise on the left side of her face. But behind wire-rimmed glasses, those green eyes still regarded me steadily…expectantly. Her wavy white hair was cut short, the laugh lines around her eyes and mouth were a little deeper. I handed her the box of chocolates, feeling bewildered and sad. Were my parents right—was Grandma starting to lose it?
She lifted the cover of the box and closed her eyes as she inhaled the scent of chocolate. “You Americans do know how to make chocolate, no matter what anyone says.”
“Grandma, you’re an American, too.” Had she even forgotten that she’d left the UK behind after World War II? Not the UK, I quickly reminded myself. Grandma would always frown as she reminded me that the island of Guernsey was a dependency of the Crown, not a part of the United Kingdom.
“I know I’m an American, Chelsea.” Instead of eating a chocolate, she regarded me with eyes that turned from teasing to sober, even as a monitor continued to beep behind her head. “But I do wish your parents had kept my concerns to themselves. At twenty-two, you are too young to be involved.”
