This was a little slow at first but once everyone started being snakes it got interesting and the story picked up.

This is another wonderful book set during WWII and alternates to present day. The characters were well developed and at times, I felt that I was in the wine cellars with Celine, Theo, Michel and Ines. For me, the description of the wine cellars and passage ways was quite real and believable.
I read Ms Harmel's The Room on Rue Amelie in 2018 and found a new favorite author. I especially loved the small reference to the prior book in this one.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Gallery Books for this advanced readers copy. This is scheduled to release in August 2019!

A beautiful, rich novel. I don’t often cry when reading, but this story brought me to tears. Highly recommend.
