Tyskarna har invaderat Frankrike och folket lever i ständig skräck. När Evas pappa blir bortförd av tyskarna för att han är jude tvingas Eva och hennes mor på flykt. Eva och hennes mor hamnar i en liten stad nära gränsen till Schweiz och där hittar Eva ljuset i mörkret, möjligheten till motstånd. 

En oerhört gripande och spännande bok. Den är oerhört bra men jag varnar er den får tårarna att rulla av lycka och sorg. Rekommenderar starkt denna bok baserad på en sann historia om en kvinna under andra världskriget. Definitivt läsvärd!

Really interesting to learn about forgery and the french resistance under German occupation. I felt like the plot was a bit formulaic, but overall an enjoyable read.
