Description

In the aftermath of a hard-fought conflict, a young girl and her family confront the complicated meaning of “victory” as the world tries to move forward and the past refuses to stay buried. As new dangers and old wounds resurface, she must navigate shifting loyalties, fragile safety, and the everyday choices that determine whether peace is real or merely temporary. Blending resilience with emotional clarity, this story explores themes of courage, belonging, and the cost of survival—especially for those who have been overlooked by history. With Kimberly Brubaker Bradley’s signature blend of character-driven storytelling and historical insight, the novel delivers a hopeful yet honest look at what it takes to rebuild a life when the war is “over,” but the struggle continues.
