Goodnight from Paris: A Novel

In Nazi-occupied France, American film actress Drue Leyton, married to Frenchman Jacques Tartière, lives as an expatriate. When her husband is sent to Brittany to work as a liaison for the British military, Drue finds herself alone in Paris, separated from her Hollywood career. Befriended by journalist Dorothy Thompson and encouraged by political operative Jean Fraysse, Drue begins broadcasting radio programs to the United States. Her mission is to counter American apathy and advocate for resistance and U.S. support as Nazi forces advance and France falls under occupation. As Drue and Jean draw suspicion, Hitler issues a death sentence: Drue will be executed if captured. In an increasingly dangerous Paris, Drue commits herself to fighting the enemy, willing to risk everything for her adopted country and those she loves.
