"""Genevieve Graham once again takes a deep dive into the world of women at war with Dot and Dash, twin sisters from Oshawa, who overcome male prejudice to make a massive contribution to the defeat of evil. Vivid characterizations and pinpoint research bring that dangerous--yet exciting--world alive. And though it is not the focus, there's a fine examination of love-under-fire too."" -- C.C. HUMPHREYS, award-winning author of Someday I'll Find You and Plague ""Graham is the reigning queen of historical fiction about Canada, and The Secret Keeper is her most sweeping, searing story yet, an intricate tale of the Canadian women of World War II, many of whom were sworn to keep their wartime heroics secret. A riveting historical tale of sisterhood, sacrifice, love, and war, it will change the way you look at twentieth-century history."" -- KRISTIN HARMEL, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Daughter ""[T]ouching and harrowing. Graham masterfully and lovingly recreates the lives of two women engaged in wartime service, capturing their youthful idealism, sense of duty, and sheer energy. You will follow the adventures of sisters Dot and Dash with your heart in your mouth. Not to be missed!"" -- IONA WHISHAW, bestselling author of To Track a Traitor ""Thrilling and heartfelt, The Secret Keeper showcases the oft-forgotten contributions of Canadian women to the war effort through twin sisters Dot and Dash, whose commitments to serve put them at odds with their commitments to each other. With a particularly heart-pounding third act, The Secret Keeper is Genevieve Graham at her masterful best."" -- BRYN TURNBULL, internationally bestselling author of The Paris Deception"

Praise for Bluebird A beautiful book that tells a little-known chapter of history with incredible humanity. From the neighbourhoods of Toronto to the battlefields of Hong Kong, Genevieve Graham weaves exquisite research, nail-biting tension, and rich characters into a sweeping novel of courage, betrayal, and reconciliation. I loved it! -- JULIA KELLY, internationally bestselling author of The Light Over London A compelling story, meticulously researched and beautifully told--to the point that I was moved to tears on several occasions. Graham is a master storyteller with a gift to touch the heart. I'm so happy to have discovered her work. -- SANTA MONTEFIORE, bestselling author of The Temptation of Gracie An epic tale of enduring love, loyalty and heroism, and a haunting portrayal of one of the most tragic yet overlooked battles of WWII, Letters Across the Sea has all the ingredients of a historical fiction masterpiece. Genevieve Graham has delivered once more a powerful, devastating, and ultimately redemptive story that stirs the heart in profound and lasting ways. -- ROXANNE VELETZOS, internationally bestselling author of The Girl They Left Behind From the battlefields of war-torn France to the speakeasies of Canada's prohibition-flaunting towns, Bluebird weaves a compelling, emotional story of love, second chances, and sacrifice. Genevieve Graham is uniquely talented at bringing history to light with characters who stay with you long after the last page. Bluebird is why I never miss a new Genevieve Graham book! -- JULIA KELLY, internationally bestselling author of The Last Garden in England From the battlefields of World War I to Prohibition-era Canada, Bluebird swept me away. Once again, Genevieve Graham writes brilliantly about how the past impacts the present. This meticulously researched page-turner will keep you reading into the night. -- JANET SKESLIEN CHARLES, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Library Full of wartime heroics, rollicking rumrunners, and star-crossed lovers, Bluebird has it all. But most of all, it is full of compassion for the men and women who served in the first global conflict facing our world. No one writes Canadian historical fiction with more heart than Genevieve Graham, and this pure and ennobling tale is exactly what our own hearts need now. -- NATALIE JENNER, internationally bestselling author of The Jane Austen Society Graham further cements her status as one of the preeminent writers of Canadian twentieth-century historical fiction by illuminating a dark and complex chapter in the nation's past in the decade leading up to World War II. With meticulous research and vivid prose and memorable characters, Graham demonstrates once more her unique ability to inspire, educate, and entertain. -- PAM JENOFF, New York Times bestselling author of The Woman with the Blue Star I always look forward to diving into a Genevieve Graham novel, because I know I'll be swept away by her meticulous evocation of the past, her memorable and wonderfully observed characters, and her unmatchable flair for shining a light into the neglected corners of our shared past. In Letters Across the Sea, she sends us from 1930s Toronto, then under siege by a relentless plague of anti-Semitism, to a different battleground altogether: the last stand of Canadian troops at the Battle of Hong Kong. This is history worth remembering--and fiction that both enlightens and entertains. -- JENNIFER ROBSON, internationally bestselling author of The Gown Readers weary of European-centric World War II dramas will delight in Genevieve Graham's Letters Across the Sea, which centers on the courage and tenacity of Canadian soldiers, veterans, and home-front fighters. A budding love affair between Irish aspiring-journalist Molly and Jewish medical student Max is derailed first by a shocking anti-Semitic riot, then by the winds of war which send Max to fight in the Pacific as Molly carves herself a niche as a reporter. A lost letter has the power to bring them back into each other's lives, but at what cost? A tender, moving tale illuminating a fascinating lesser-known chapter of World War II history! -- KATE QUINN, New York Times bestselling author of The Rose Code
