The Lavender Bees of Meuse

“The Lavender Bees of Meuse” is a well-researched tale of survival. The exquisite language opens a portal to the Nazi occupation of France during World War 2 and celebrates the triumph of hope over tribulation. The story stays behind the battle lines in the rural countryside along the river Meuse, where people hide Jewish orphans, share meager foodstuffs, and persistently resist the persecution of the German Commandant in a surprising twist of events. An intriguing weave of historical fiction, romance and suspense.
