It’s 1939, and all across Europe the Nazis are coming for Jews
and anti-fascists. The only way to avoid being imprisoned or
murdered is to assume a new identity. For that, people are
desperate for papers. And for that, the underground
needs forgers. In Paris, Sarah, a young Jewish artist
originally from Berlin, along with her music teacher and father
figure, Mr. Lieb, meet Cesar, a Spanish Republican who knows well
the brutality of fleeing fascism. He soon recognizes Sarah’s
gift. She will become the underground’s new forger. When the war
reaches Paris, the trio joins thousands of other refugees in
a chaotic exodus south. In Marseille, they’re received by
friends, but they’re also now part of a resistance the government
is actively hunting.  Sarah, now Simone, continues her
forgery work in the shadows, expertly creating false papers that
will mean the difference between life and a horrifying death for
many. When Mr. Lieb is arrested and imprisoned in Les Milles
internment camp, Simone, Cesar, and their friends vow to rescue
him, enlisting the help of American journalist Varian Fry, known
for plotting the escapes of high- profile people like Andre Breton
and Marc Chagall. In this enlightening and thrilling story of war,
love, and courage, author Linda Joy Myers explores identity,
ingenuity, and the power of art to save lives.
