Perfect for you if...

  • You loved The Book Thief or All the Light We Cannot See and want another sweeping WWII story centred on women's courage and friendship.
  • You're drawn to historical mysteries that unfold across two timelines, where a present-day discovery unlocks dangerous secrets from the past.
  • You appreciate nuanced portrayals of female solidarity under impossible circumstances, especially during the Holocaust.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced thrillers where the mystery unfolds in real time rather than through retrospective investigation and flashbacks.
  • You want primarily action-driven narratives; this novel dwells on emotional weight and moral complexity more than plot momentum.
  • You're uncomfortable with Holocaust-adjacent settings or stories that require emotional investment in wartime atrocities.

About this book

London, 1953. Louise, adjusting to postwar life as a housewife, discovers a necklace in a secondhand shop marked with the name of a Parisian department store. She believes she has seen it before while working with the Red Cross in Nazi-occupied Europe, and suspects it connects to the mysterious death of her friend Franny during the war. Following the clues to Paris, Louise uncovers the history of Lévitan, a former luxury department store that functioned as a Nazi prison. There she learns of Helaine, a woman imprisoned there who was separated from her husband when Germany invaded France. As Louise investigates the connection between the necklace, the store, and Franny's death, she discovers that the truth is more complex than expected and that some forces are working to keep it hidden.
