Produktbeschreibung

A SMART, AGILE, HEADSTRONG... American Hattie is just a WOMAN born into privilege in bilingual New Orleans in 1914 who strains at the conventional prejudices against women in early 20th century United States.

She travels to the Sorbonne in Paris and studies medicine, completing her degree as Hitler's Nazis invade France. Hattie fears for her life, writes her Louisiana fiance, and breaks their engagement. Forced to fend for herself, Hattie accepts a marriage proposal from a former beau, now an officer in the French Army, as her only way out of Paris.

She falls in love with her husband, Luke DeValcourt, then loses him to a Nazi prison. Hattie becomes a member of the French Resistance to help rescue Luke, then escapes across the Channel to England

Trouble she can't see, tougher than the others, takes her to the edge more than once. She thought she'd be okay, but Hattie has a lot to learn...if she lives. Hattie is more tomboy than debutante, with a trained intellect that helps her keep her balance.

Life back home in Louisiana has more pitfalls and dangers for Hattie that threaten her life, her love, and her livelihood. Shall she prevail, or suffer even more terrible consequences?

Autorenporträt

Bellamy Gayle began her writing career as a sports stringer for a local newspaper in Cajun country. A monthly column in a regional woman's magazine followed. Other work afforded a wide variety of writing experiences, from politics to a development director for a nonprofit organization, with stops in real estate and owning travel agencies back in the day. A member of the local Writers' Guild, Bellamy studied the basics of novel writing and met many gifted writers.

Bellamy's stacks of short stories grew until NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) nudged her to write a murder mystery which became the first novel of the Sazerac Series. The second book, AN ORDINARY WOMAN, is in the editing phase. A third novel, tentatively titled ODETTE: RUN FOR YOUR LIFE shall follow.

Gayle and her husband live in south Louisiana's Lafayette parish, happily listening to the summer sounds of the cicadas and visiting with the neighborhood cats Baby, Bob, and Blackie, who regularly drop by. The couple has a passel of grown children and a swarm of precious grandchildren scattered across the nation.
