Más información sobre el libro

A heartrending tale of a young mother's struggle to keep her daughter amid the forces that tear them apart unfolds in California, 1938. After losing her parents in an accident, sixteen-year-old Rosanne is taken in by Celine and Truman Calvert, owners of the vineyard where she has grown up as the vinedresser's daughter. Rosanne harbors a secret: she experiences synesthesia, seeing colors when she hears sounds, a gift she promised her mother to keep hidden. However, overwhelmed by grief and isolation, she breaks this vow and, in a moment of desperation, becomes pregnant. Banished by the Calverts, Rosanne believes she is headed to a home for unwed mothers, cherishing her pregnancy as a chance for a new beginning. Instead, she finds herself in a far darker place than she imagined. Fast forward to Austria, 1947—Helen Calvert, having witnessed the horrors of Adolf Hitler's regime, returns to America. Upon arriving at her brother's vineyard, she learns the shocking fate of Rosanne, the vinedresser's daughter she once befriended. Determined to uncover the truth, Helen embarks on a quest to find Rosanne, revealing that while the war in Europe has ended, new battles still rage at home.
