The Moon Looked Down

"The premier writer of Americana romance" crafts a story of one woman's fight to save her heartland dreams during the early days of World War II (Booklist).

Young Sophie Heller and her family sacrificed everything to escape Nazi Germany and find safety in America. But as war fever sweeps their small town of Victory, Illinois, they become targets of suspicion, whispered accusations of treason, and a vicious attack. Sophie's father won't go to the law for help, but Sophie, now a newspaperwoman, vows to expose those behind the threats no matter what it takes. Her only ally is Cole Ambrose, a teacher whose quiet strength slowly earns her trust . . . and hides secret pain. As hidden enemies move in to destroy the Hellers once and for all, will Sophie and Cole's defiance—and unexpected love—be enough?
