"Niki's heart was thrumming as the taxi stopped with a jerk in front of the gray, stone building behind tall, black iron gates. On a metal plaque was engraved Les Soeurs de Merci. Niki thrust several franc notes staring through the rungs of the gate. Years ago another young woman-perhaps her mother- had stood in the same place, a baby in her arms, the child she was going to give up. What emotions had run through her heart?" Niki had come to France to seek her true identity and to experience the richness of her French heritage. But what begins as a romantic, carefree summer holiday for Niki, her stepbrother Luc Montrose, and their friend Paul Duval, ends with the outbreak of war, changing their lives forever. As World War II ravages Europe, Niki wants desperately to serve her native country in its time of need. She finds herself making dangerous decisions and facing dramatic challenges, aware of- but unable to do anything about- the impact the war is having on her loved ones back at Montclair. Caught up in the firestorm of world conflict, this courageous young woman with an unknown past faces an uncertain future, with only her newfound faith to sustain her.

      The various members of the Montrose family return in this continuation of the popular series (The Pattern, LJ 4/1/96). It is 1939 and Niki Gilbreaux, the adopted daughter of Cara and Kip Montrose, is in France, attempting to research her past. When war breaks out, she does everything she can for the war effort and also falls in love with Fraser Montrose, a distant relation of her adoptive family. Other members of the Montrose clan also find love during the hectic war years. Peart's books are usually lively and charming, and this one is no exception. Niki matures gracefully and believably, especially spiritually. Peart's growing audience will welcome this new addition.
