Ok so I am probably one of the last people out there to read this book that being said I can't believe I hadn't read it sooner.The characters are fictional but it is based upon events that took place during the occupation in France during the summer of 1942.
The night of the great Velodrome d'Hiver roundup (July 16, 1942 in Paris) Sarah locks her younger brother in their favorite hiding place promising she will be back in a little while to get him out. In 2002 an American journalist trying to write a story on the events of the roundup, stumbles upon Sarah's story. As she searches for information on Sarah she stumbles upon her own family secret.
I loved this book.
