I don't want to be fighting <em>you</em> as well.</strong>'</p><p>In the small French town of Colmar, swastikas hang from lampposts, tanks are lined up outside the town hall, and twenty-one-year-old <strong>Marie-Claire</strong> is in love. She will do anything for her childhood friend Jacques, including spying on her German boss, Dietrich Kurtz. Anything to make Jacques see her in a new light, as something more than just a silly little girl.</p><p>But when Jacques rejects her, everything changes. Mortified and stung, Marie-Claire feels the need for revenge. She turns her back on those she loves and is catapulted into a new life.</p><p>Her little sister <strong>Victoire</strong> is aghast at her sister's traitorous behaviour, not least because Marie-Claire is endangering Victoire's own life-threatening mission, hiding Jewish refugees in their mother's wine cellar. And when Marie-Claire marries Kurtz, Victoire knows her relationship with her sister has been poisoned for ever.</p><p>But when Victoire learns someone she loves is in terrible danger, her only choice is to trust the sister who betrayed her. Kurtz, Marie-Claire's cruel and heartless husband, has key information and Victoire must persuade Marie-Claire to obtain it, even if it means risking Marie-Claire's life.
