"1914. When war breaks out, Aurelie de Courcelles flees the safety of the Hotel Ritz and her American heiress mother to join her estranged father at their estate in Picardy, determined to defy the German invaders. But as the Germans push forward, taking the chateau as their headquarters, Aurelie's plans are complicated by the presence of Maximilian von Sternburg, once a friend, now aide-de-camp to the despised German commandant. Caught between loyalty and love, which will she betray? 1942. Raised by her indomitable American grandmother in the glamorous Hotel Ritz, Daisy Villon remains in Paris with her husband, a Nazi collaborator, after France falls to Hitler. While at first reluctant to put her family at risk, Daisy agrees to act as a courier for a skilled English forger who creates identity papers for Resistance members and Jewish refugees. But as Daisy commits increasingly audacious acts of espionage, she uncovers a devastating secret . . . one that will force her to commit the ultimate betrayal. 1964. For Barbara "Babs" Langford, her husband, Kit, was the love of her life. Yet their marriage was haunted by a mysterious woman known only as La Fleur. After Kit's death, a letter from American lawyer Drew Bowdoin appears at her door. Drew is on the trail of a Resistance fighter turned traitor called La Fleur, and the investigation has led to Kit Langford. Babs joins Drew in his search, a journey of discovery that takes them to Paris and the Ritz -- and to unexpected places of the heart."--
