Paris, 1942: In the midst of the Nazi Occupation, Annabel Marceau begins stealing from Germans and funnelling money to the French Resistance. But when she takes a pair of valuable bracelets from a high-ranking Nazi officer, she finds herself - and her two young daughters - in the line of fire, with devastating consequences.

Boston, 2018: Colette Marceau, now in her eighties, has spent a lifetime determined to find out what happened to her mother and sister that fateful night. When one of the missing bracelets surfaces at the Boston Diamond Museum, can she finally find the answers - and justice - she has been looking for?

*Published under the title The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau in the US*

A heart-wrenching and evocative dual-timeline novel, perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore, Rachel Hore, Lucinda Riley and Kristin Hannah.

Critic reviews

A rousing historical heist novel . . . about family, unfaltering love, tragic loss, and the choices - good and bad - that become our legacy
This stunning story examines the complexity of morality, and the power that ordinary people have to enact change in the world around them . . . I couldn't turn the pages fast enough
A dazzling diamond of a novel . . . Moving deftly between occupied Paris during WW2 and between Boston and Paris many decades later, Kristin Harmel has a rare ability to touch the heart, and holds the reader in thrilling suspense throughout

Fabulous

What a brilliant story and I think it’s my favourite of the year. Only marred by the dreadful, teeth grating English, French and German accents of the narrator.

I really struggled with the accents of the main characters in this audio book, so much so that I almost gave up on it. The character from the UK sounded like she came from Manchester via Glasgow. The French accents were the stereo typical French accent which bear no relation to reality. Lovely story, possibly a little too long and I felt it all tied up too conveniently.

Accents ruined it for me.

Loved the book and story. Although I could predict the ending I had become invested in the characters and wanted this things that did to be revealed.

Beautiful

the story was gripping and I enjoyed it ,the story was well told and although I think I had an idea of what was going to happen but I didnt care.
However the narration most of it was really good and believable the French arts and the American with accent but the 2 characters that had an English accent was awful the English accent made my teeth scream . That stopped me giving it 5 * in all categories.
