Very slow in the beginning. Not my favorite Anita Shreeve by far.

In a Nazi-occupied Belgain village, the wife of a resistance worker shelters a wounded Amercian bomber pilot.

bittersweet.

Great book!

This tale of impossible love unfolds in a Nazi-occupied Belgian village where the wife of a resistance worker shelters a wounded American bomber pilot in a secret hideaway. As she nurses him back to health, Claire is drawn into a passionate love affair that seems capable of conquering all - until the brutal realities of war shatter every idea she ever held about love, trust, and betrayal.

The bits of crudity and language in here honestly made me think it was written by a man. The writing style was choppy and sometimes hard to follow. Occasionally the narrative slips into a flashback without warning, which can get confusing. Many sections start out with "He did this" or "She did that" and go on for paragraphs without telling us who he or she is. Since the story jumps around a lot, 'he' and 'she' could refer to anyone. However, it was not so bad I put the book down; I finished it in 2-3 days.

I really liked this. I wanted it to end differently than it did (I'm not disappointed though) but as with most war stories--they don't usually end in a happy way.
