The Lisbon Affair - A WW2 Novel: Flying with the Swallows, Volume One
* An unforgettable reading experience about one widow's brave determination to prove she is more than a do-nothing aristocrat and, in her journey of self-discovery and sacrifice, finds a second chance at true, unconditional love in the heart of war. * New York City, 1943: War widow and Best Society's darling Mrs. Evelyn (Evie) Rousseau Somerset is five months into mourning her husband's death when her family insists on an untenable plan for her future. Desolate and disenchanted with life, she's determined to remake herself and prove she's something more than a useless socialite-regardless of what her senator brother and domineering mother demand of her. A previous clandestine job at a newspaper provides the escape she's looking for: a trip to Lisbon, the spy capital of the world, to use her money and connections to rescue a family of German Jews stranded in neutral Portugal. While crossing the Atlantic to Lisbon, she meets handsome and enigmatic Carl Wilson, a cocksure, ill-mannered American musician with an agenda and secrets of his own. Armed only with sophistication and moxie, Evelyn reluctantly welcomes Carl's invitation to a new world-one that ultimately lands her as a secret agent for His Majesty's government.
