The Translator's War

**A brilliant young translator is called on to infiltrate a German military base and gather intelligence about a terrifying new rocket program in this powerful World War II historical novel by bestselling, award-winning author Roseanna M. White.**

**Paris, 1943.** Amalie de Clarens is a woman of exceptional talent. Fluent in five languages and gifted with a photographic memory, she is forced to return home from university when the Nazis march into Paris. Desperate to use her skills to aid the Resistance, she soon finds a position as a German translator where she gathers intelligence she hopes to smuggle to the Allies. But she faces a major problem: since the attacks in Paris, Amalie has been unable to contact the Resistance. Then a chance meeting reunites her with Jules Lamarque, the man she’d once been in love with and who now leads a prestigious intelligence cell.

Jules runs his cell with strict rules of mathematics and statistics. Every agent, every source must be redundant, replaceable, and isolated to mitigate the risk. After drawing Amalie into the work, he soon realizes she is none of those things. Then rumblings come that German scientists are developing a bomb more powerful than anything seen before, one that could decimate the entire city of London in a single strike. When Jules is ordered to send Amalie to spy on the German rocket program at a major military installment, they will both discover the true cost of war . . . and the incredible strength and love required to survive the unimaginable.
