About

Loyalty during Peril
In the heart of war-torn France, Isabelle Seauve's resolve is tested after her father sacrifices his life to protect her involvement in the French Resistance. Heartbroken, Isabelle becomes more dedicated to hiding Jewish children in and near the village of Sisteron despite the growing danger when she discovers a traitor within the Resistance ranks.

Truth amid Deception
As the shadow of betrayal looms, Isabelle's world collides with that of US Army Chaplain Peter Christensen, who carries emotional scars from his first position in Kentucky and his service in North Africa. Together, they face the brutal reality of war as the second D-Day--the Allied invasion of Provence--unfolds.

Bravery through Trial
Fifteen-year-old René Amblard narrowly escapes a devastating German attack that claims the lives of his mother and their fellow Maquis fighters. With a Jewish orphan girl at his side, René seeks out his cousin, Isabelle, for refuge while he contemplates revenge.

When the bombs of Operation Dragoon begin to fall, this unlikely group of heroes must find freedom in their souls before they can rebuild what has been destroyed.

"Elizabeth's signature artistry as a storyteller dazzles."--SUSAN MEISSNER, bestselling author, on By Way of the Moonlight

Endorsements

"Elizabeth Musser's engaging novel of the French Resistance is a page-turner! Her knowledge of France plunges readers into the action, and her complex characters--fearful yet courageous--live and breathe. From the Valley We Rise is a wonderful story, rich in spiritual depth, that fans of WWII fiction shouldn't miss."

Lynn Austin, bestselling author
