A moving historical romance by Jojo Moyes that weaves together two stories separated by nearly a century. During World War I, Sophie Lefèvre struggles to survive in occupied France while clinging to a portrait painted by her husband before he left for war. In the present day, Liv Halston becomes the owner of the same painting, only to find herself caught in a legal and emotional battle over its ownership. As the two women's lives become connected through the artwork, the novel explores love, sacrifice, loss, courage, and the enduring power of hope.
