Genevieve’s War

Patricia Reilly Giff

In August 1939, thirteen-year-old American Genevieve decides not to take the train that would begin her return to New York. Instead, she remains in Alsace, France, with her grandmother in a small village for the years of World War II. Her choice brings her into contact with the French Resistance as Nazis occupy the country. Genevieve ultimately risks her safety by defying the Nazis and taking part in the resistance. The novel is connected to Lily’s Crossing as a companion book.
