This is a book inspired by the real-life forgers during WWII who helped to create false documents for refugees of the war. And it was beautifully done. 

I adored Eva and Rèmy the two main characters of this book. They are not perfect by any means, and I think that only makes them better. It is a story of love, loss, family, and courage. Be prepared to smile and cry many times throughout the book. 

The audiobook narrator was also phenomenal - definitely recommend.
