Description

In a small Hudson River Valley town after World War II, Peggy Serrano struggles to help her childhood friend Jimmy Barnett, an army medic whose devastating wartime experiences have left him unable to resume ordinary life. As Peggy searches for answers among Jimmy’s former comrades, the story reaches back to Gisela Wolff, a young Jewish nurse whose family flees Nazi persecution and whose perilous journey through wartime Europe becomes unexpectedly connected to Jimmy’s. Moving between postwar America and the upheaval of Europe, this poignant novel explores trauma, resilience, friendship, faith, and the difficult path toward healing. With compassion and historical insight, it illuminates the courage required to find hope—and a way home—after unimaginable loss.
