In the quiet village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac says goodbye to her husband Antoine as he heads to the front. She does not believe that the Nazis will invade France ... but they do invade it, with large numbers of marching soldiers, in convoys of trucks and tanks, in planes that fill the sky and throw bombs on innocent people. When France is invaded, Vian is forced to take an enemy to her home, and suddenly her every step is monitored; Her life and the life of her child are in constant danger. Without food, money, or hope, as danger mounts around her, she must make one terrible choice after another.
Vian's sister, Isabel, is a rebellious eighteen-year-old girl who is eagerly searching for a target with a passion for reckless youth. As thousands of Parisians march in the horror of unknown war, she meets the disguised and mysterious Gaetan, a partisan who believes the French can fight the Nazis from within France, and falls in love just as only young people can ... absolutely. When he betrays her, Isabelle rushes into danger and joins the resistance, never looking back or thinking about the real and deadly consequences.
