The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse

In
1942, the Nazis come for a Jewish family living in Montparnasse, occupied
Paris. In the chaos of their arrest, eleven-year-old Josie flees to the only
person she trusts: her piano teacher, Andrée Levallois, secretly an operative
in the French Resistance.

Andrée takes her in as a member of the family, spreading their rations and risking everything to keep her safe. But soon the authorities close in, and both Andrée and Josie are caught in a desperate race to stay alive.

Heather Morris, author of the international bestseller, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, returns with a masterful new novel that captures the astonishing bravery of French Resistance operatives, and one piano teacher who is willing to risk everything to save a young girl.

Epic in scope and inspired by real events and people, The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse is a gripping, heartbreaking and uplifting story of ordinary people in extraordinary times.
