The Postmistress of Paris
Virtual - Watch from home, Link provided on registration

This haunting novel revisits the dark early days of the German occupation in France, a love story and a tale of high-stakes danger and incomparable courage.

A young American heiress from Chicago, Naneé, helps artists hunted by the Nazis escape from war-torn Europe. Known as the Postmistress because she delivers information to those in hiding, Naneé uses her charms and skill to house the hunted and deliver them to safety.

Meg Waite Clayton is the internationally bestselling author of eight novels, including the National Jewish Book Award finalist The Last Train to London. Meg’s work has appeared more than 100 times in national publications and on public radio.

                  –Lisa Scottoline, New York Times bestselling author of Eternal

"Lyrical, thought-provoking prose ... This sterling portrait of a complex woman stands head and shoulders above most contemporary WWII fiction.”
