About “Charlotte Gray”

In 1942, Charlotte Gray, a young Scottish woman, travels to Occupied France on a dual mission: to complete a task for a British special operations group and to search for her missing lover, an English airman. Set in the small town of Lavaurette, the novel portrays the complex realities of life under Nazi occupation, including collaboration, resistance, and the impact of the Holocaust, as Charlotte becomes involved with the local resistance and encounters Julien, the resistance chief, and his father, a Jewish painter.
