She has been stealing jewels for nearly as long as she can remember, following the centuries-old code of honor instilled in her by her mother: take only from the cruel and unkind, and give to those in need. Never was their family tradition more important than seven decades earlier, during the Second World War, when mother and daughter worked side by side in Paris to fund the French Resistance.
But one night in 1942, it all went wrong. Her mother was arrested by the Germans, and her four-year-old sister disappeared in the chaos of the raid, along with an exquisite diamond bracelet sewn into the hem of her nightgown for safekeeping.
Seventy years later, she has done her best to put her tragic past behind her, but her life begins to unravel when the long-missing bracelet suddenly turns up in a museum exhibit in Boston. If she can discover where it has been all this time—and who owns it now—she may finally learn the truth about what happened to her sister. When someone from her childhood lays claim to the diamonds, she’s forced to confront the ghosts of her past as never before. Against all odds, there may still be a chance to bring a murderer to justice—but first, she will have to summon the courage to open her own battered heart.
On sale now through July 14th (or until we sell out), this stunning historical fiction novel paired with four immersive gifts focuses on "family, unfaltering love, tragic loss, and the choices—good and bad—that become our legacy.” (Sarah McCoy). Boxes are expected to ship in late July.
