Trapped under occupation, Eloise finds herself drawn to the local resistance – and to André, its charismatic leader. André is determined to use the hotel’s unique position to save as many refugees fleeing persecution as he can.
It doesn’t take long before the Germans start closing in. Facing the threat of discovery and the shadows of her past, Eloise must decide how much she is willing to risk to save innocent lives. Even at the cost of her own…
