"Paris 1944. To save her people, she served the enemy. In enemy-occupied Paris, music and laughter spill through the door of a little restaurant crowded with German soldiers. The owner, Marianne, moves on weary feet between its packed tables, carrying plates of food for the enemy officers. Her smile is bright and sparkling, her welcome cordial. Nobody would guess the hatred she hides in her heart. One night the restaurant closes its doors for the final time. In the morning, the windows are scratched with the words traitor and murderer. And Marianne has disappeared without a trace... Years later, Marianne's granddaughter, Sabine, stands under the faded green awning of the restaurant left to her. When Sabine discovers the locals blamed her grandmother for the terrible tragedy that haunts the restaurant, she is ready to abandon her dark legacy. Then she finds a hidden passport with a picture of a woman who looks like her grandmother but has a different name, and she knows there must be more to Marianne's story. Digging into the past, Sabine starts to wonder if her grandmother wasa heroine, not a traitor. What happened to her after the tragic night when she fled from her restaurant? And will the answer change Sabine's own life forever?"--Page 4 of cover.
