GIVEAWAY – 3 copies of Escape to Tuscany: TUSCANY

2nd July 2023

We are delighted to offer 3 copies of Escape to Tuscany by Kat Devereaux, set in TUSCANY

3 copies of Escape to Tuscany

 

Romituzzo, 1944

Just fourteen, Stella Infuriati is the youngest member of her town’s resistance network – a secret she keeps even from her parents. She works alongside her brother Achille to relay messages, supplies and weapons to partisan groups in the Tuscan hills. Fuelled by courage and a fierce sense of purpose, Stella braves incredible danger and survives… but when peace comes in 1945, she vanishes.

Florence, 2019

Writer Tori MacNair arrives in Florence. Fleeing an emotionally abusive marriage, she’s come to build a new life in the city her grandmother taught her to love. As she digs into her family history, Tori uncovers decades-old secrets about a brave young woman who risked everything to save her world. As Tori and Stella’s stories intertwine, they reveal the power of love, community, and sacrifice across the generations.
