About this listen

 Lavender farmer Luc Bonet is raised by a wealthy Jewish family in the foothills of the French Alps. When the Second World War breaks out he joins the French Resistance, leaving behind his family's fortune, their home overrun by soldiers, their lavender fields in disarray. Lisette Forestier is on a mission of her own: to work her way into the heart of a senior German officer – and to bring down the Reich in any way she can. What Luc and Lisette hadn't counted on was meeting each other. When they come together at the height of the Paris occupation, German traitors are plotting to change the course of history. But who, if anyone, can be trusted? As Luc and Lisette's emotions threaten to betray them, their love may prove the greatest risk of all.©2012 Fiona McIntosh (P)2016 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Contemporary Romance Fiction Historical Fiction Romance

Critic Reviews

‘This poignant, romantic read also packs a surprising hit of action.’ (InStyle)
‘This book is fast-paced, beautifully haunting and filled with the excruciating pain of war.’ (The West Australian)
'McIntosh's narrative races across oceans and dances through ballrooms.' (The Sun Herald)

41 chapters of love triangles set against Nazi occupied France that bounds along at a respectable pace. The adventure and intrigue play second fiddles to the game of romantic Triominos that takes the lead, but it's not so far in the background as to feel absent.
