Alsace 1944: Mathilde follows the soldier she loves home to Morocco. Suffocated by the climate, loneliness, and a mistrust of foreigners, she grows restless. Relations between settlers and natives are tense and her husband is caught in the crossfire; his desire to protect his wife at odds with her desire for freedom, as the increasing violence of Morocco's struggle for independence grows. The first volume of a new trilogy telling the saga of one French family between 1946 and 2016.
