Summary

"Marcelle, born at the close of World War I, carries her father's surname, along with the shame of illegitimacy. Her daughter, Sophie, born during the throes of World War II, believes her childhood nightmares are over when she moves to the US, but finds them reoccuring once her mother calls her to France to honor her deathbed request: "Find my father." Sophie's American friend Kate, who agrees to help Sophie search for her grandfather, harbors her own dark secrets from the Vietnam War, unbeknownst to Sophie. As Sophie and Kate struggle to resolve the issue of Marcelle's past, their own paths become inextricably intertwined--and they begin to lay bare the truth of their lives"--Back cover
