The mountain paths are as treacherous as they are steep – the more so in the dark and in winter. Even for the fit the journey is a formidable challenge. Hundreds of those who climbed through the Pyrenees during the Second World War were malnourished and exhausted after weeks on the run hiding in barns and attics. Many never even reached the Spanish border. Today their bravery and endurance is commemorated each July by a trek along the Chemin de la Liberté – the toughest and most dangerous of wartime routes. From his fellow pilgrims Edward Stourton uncovers stories of midnight scrambles across rooftops and drops from speeding trains; burning Lancasters, doomed love affairs, horrific murder and astonishing heroism. The lives of the men, women and children who were drawn by the war to the Pyrenees often read as breathtakingly exciting adventure, but they were led against a background of intense fear, mounting persecution and appalling risk. Drawing on interviews with the few remaining survivors and the families of those who were there, Edward Stourton’s vivid history of this little-known aspect of the Second World War is shocking, dramatic and intensely moving.

Theres no limit to human cruelty. Theres a limit to human endurance. When the two collide, left in its wake are shattered lives seeking retribution, if they survived. Clyde Henderson, chief of police, made it his life mission to protect Kate Lyn from the very man who assassinated her parents, leaving her basically a orphan. Houston Hertz had eluded the police time and time again. Clyde thought it necessary to pull off a hushed adoption in order to shield her from the depraved man. Kate Lyn Phillips-Hunter, after the death of her parents, created a void. When Kevin Baker entered her life, along with his son, Adrian, she was lifted from the empty darkness. But she knew her smothering protectors would have taken them away if they knew he had spent time behind bars, and she being Adrians case worker. She would keep secrets of her own. Then, suddenly, everything changed. Their deception and her little white lies would come back to haunt all of them. Houston Hertz was one person not to mess with. Dont taunt, defy, betray, or cross him. He would much rather you live and suffer than just kill you.

WINNER OF THE FRANCO-BRITISH SOCIETY BOOK PRIZE 2016 June, 1940. German troops enter Paris and hoist the swastika over the Arc de Triomphe. The dark days of Occupation begin. How would you have survived? By collaborating with the Nazis, or risking the lives of you and your loved ones to resist? The women of Paris faced this dilemma every day - whether choosing between rations and the black market, or travelling on the Metro, where a German soldier had priority for a seat. Between the extremes of defiance and collusion was a vast moral grey area which all Parisiennes had to navigate in order to survive. Anne Sebba has sought out and interviewed scores of women, and brings us their unforgettable testimonies. Her fascinating cast includes both native Parisiennes and temporary residents: American women and Nazi wives; spies, mothers, mistresses, artists, fashion designers and aristocrats. The result is an enthralling account of life during the Second World War and in the years of recovery and recrimination that followed the Liberation of Paris in 1944. It is a story of fear, deprivation and secrets - and, as ever in the French capital, glamour and determination.

Zane:I thought everything would end the day Ash and his father, Clayton, were arrested for my parents' deaths, heading a prostitution ring, and selling arms on the black market. But I was wrong.The true reason why Ash hated Stella comes out, and it does more than ruin what little trust I've managed to repair between us.It tears us apart.There's nothing that will redeem me in Stella's eyes. All I can do is wait her out and hope that love, just this one time, conquers all.Stella:Growing up in foster care, the only thing I've ever wanted was to find a family. I thought I had when Zane asked me to marry him. I would have a husband who loved me, and Zarah would be my sister.But as the FBI sorts through all the Blacks' illegal activities, they find more than what we bargained for. Now I have to choose between Zane and the family I thought I never had.I don't know if I can keep both, or if, after everything I've been through to destroy the Blacks, I have the strength to try.
