Behind the Mask

Marianne Petit

In the early days of war-torn France, both rich and poor are thrust together, a mixed society struggling to survive.American born Yvette Matikunas, one of the privileged few, flees Paris with the mass exodus. When a deathbed promise has her roaming the streets with a dangerous message, she learns no one is who they seem to be and trust is a thing of the past.Injured when trying to save the life of one of his men, Colonial Andr� Rinaldo is disillusioned by a shell-shocked country and a weak government. Persuaded to go underground and unite his fellow compatriots by forming resistance groups, he meets a beautiful blonde, whose determination to free France from foreign dictatorship is as strong as his.In the middle of espionage and clandestine rendezvous, they form a partnership that deepens under the ever-present threat of arrest. But with America's interest in the war building in the background all Americans are ordered to leave.Will Yvette return to the States, or will Andr� persuade her to stay and fight for love?
