Paris is about to fall. Elodie Mitchell plans to leave.
A Black American journalist caught in the chaos of 1941 France, Elodie is ready to return home. But when she’s mistaken for the legendary Josephine Baker and pulled backstage at a cabaret show, she stumbles into a hidden world of danger and defiance.
Beneath the sequins and spotlight lies a resistance movement counting on her help. Disguised as Josephine’s cousin, Elodie takes on a mission that could change the course of the war—and her life. Gathering intelligence, dodging Nazi suspicion, and standing up to racism from both sides of the ocean, she becomes more than just a witness to history.
She becomes a part of it.
Inspired by true events, this is historical fiction that grips, moves, and lingers.
