About the book: 2022 / France, 1944. In an old stone cottage on the outskirts of a beautiful village in the Dordogne, three sisters dream of the end of the war. Helen, the eldest, works as a nurse at the village hospital and does everything she can to keep their little family safe. Elisa, a rebel, runs a cafe that serves as a “mailbox” for local partisans, and the younger Florence, a dreamer, looks after the house, cooks and works in the garden. One night, Florence discovers a young German deserter in the barn, and the sisters decide to hide him. That same night, the village doctor turns to them with a request to give shelter to an Englishman who was dropped here to lead the partisan struggle. And the sisters find themselves in the thick of things. They must make a choice that will dramatically change their lives. And then family secrets begin to emerge that could destroy everything they hold dear... “Daughters of War” is the first part of a trilogy about the lives of three sisters in war-torn France. For the first time in Russian!
