Description

The Song of the Partisans by Kathryn Gauci is a gripping and emotional story set in wartime France. In April 1944, Simone Guillot is ordered to shoot a collaborator before being sent to work with the Resistance in Reims. As Frenchmen and women prepare for the Allied invasion, Simone takes on a new identity as a nurse/companion to an elderly matriarch of a renowned Champagne House sympathetic to the Resistance. Trained as a saboteur and sniper, she is forced to kill again, not once but several times, in a deadly cat and mouse game with a high-ranking German officer. This epic story, based on the lives of those who served in the Maquis and Resistance, blends historical fact with thriller elements, making for a compelling read that will stay with you long after finishing the book.
