What would you do if an invading army occupied your country? Denise Dumont answers this difficult question. After landing a teaching post and marrying Andr© Reynaud, Denise faces a dilemma when the German army marches into Paris. The disruption of city services, bombing raids, and store closings leaves her frightened and furious. Will her life ever be normal? In 1940 while living in Paris, Denise joins the Resistance and works with friends to free her country. She is livid when her aunt moves in with a German colonel, witnesses the death of her husband, and courageously endures the lack of food, heat, and electricity. Later, she moves to the south of France and becomes more committed to the Resistance after her parents are murdered. While traveling with a Jewish family, she makes a harrowing choice which will forever change her life.
