"A quick read that history lovers will easily devour."-Teen Vogue
"Get ready to be transported to Paris in Taylor's incredible debut
novel."-Seventeen, Editor's Choice Code Name Verity meets Jennifer
Donnelly's Revolution in this gripping debut novel, now in
paperback with a teaser to Jordyn Taylor's next fast-paced
historical YA novel, Don't Breathe a Word NOW: Sixteen-year-old
Alice is spending the summer in Paris, but she isn't there for
pastries and walks along the Seine. When her grandmother passed
away two months ago, she left Alice an apartment in France that no
one knew existed. An apartment that has been locked for more than
seventy years. Alice is determined to find out why the apartment
was abandoned and why her grandmother never once mentioned the
family she left behind when she moved to America after World War
II. With the help of Paul, a charming Parisian student, she sets
out to uncover the truth. However, the more time she spends digging
through the mysteries of the past, the more she realizes there are
secrets in the present that her family is still refusing to talk
about. THEN: Sixteen-year-old Adalyn doesn't recognize Paris
anymore. Everywhere she looks, there are Nazis, and every day
brings a new horror of life under the Occupation. When she meets
Luc, the dashing and enigmatic leader of a resistance group, Adalyn
feels she finally has a chance to fight back. But keeping up the
appearance of being a much-admired socialite while working to
undermine the Nazis is more complicated than she could have
imagined. As the war goes on, Adalyn finds herself having to make
more and more compromises-to her safety, to her reputation, and to
her relationships with the people she loves the most.
