The Girl Who Crossed Mountains: Breathtaking World War Two Fiction - Paperback

On either side of the Pyrenees mountains, two women will risk everything to do what's right...

During the Spanish Civil War, Abene García, a fisherman's daughter, has no choice but to abandon her seaside home of San Sebastian and cross the Pyrenees to France. But when Nazi occupation shatters her newfound safety, Abene won't stand by and do nothing. Not when she knows a way for refugees to escape, over the mountains she crossed not so long before.

As nationalist forces take hold, Miren Torres, a secretary for the Basque government, is forced to return home to San Sebastian without the man she loves. When the Second World War erupts, she unwittingly catches the eye of one of Franco's most powerful generals. Desperately trying to avoid his advances, Miren holds on to hope that the man she truly loves will return.

Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Kelly Rimmer and Fiona Valpy, The Girl Who Crossed Mountains is an extraordinary tale of survival, family bonds and the power of love to persevere against all odds.
