In love we find out who we want to be.
In war we find out who we are.
FRANCE, 1939
In the quiet village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac says goodbye to her husband, Antoine, as he heads for the Front. She doesn't believe that the Nazis will invade France … but invade they do, in droves of marching soldiers, in caravans of trucks and tanks, in planes that fill the skies and drop bombs upon the innocent. When a German captain requisitions Vianne's home, she and her daughter must live with the enemy or lose everything. Without food or money or hope, as danger escalates all around them, she is forced to make one impossible choice after another to keep her family alive.
Vianne's sister, Isabelle, is a rebellious eighteen-year-old girl, searching for purpose with all the reckless passion of youth. While thousands of Parisians march into the unknown terrors of war, she meets Gäetan, a partisan who believes the French can fight the Nazis from within France, and she falls in love as only the young can … completely. But when he betrays her, Isabelle joins the Resistance and never looks back, risking her life time and again to save others.
With courage, grace and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of WWII and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France--a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.

Кристин Ханна – мастер романтических историй, лауреат многочисленных премий в этом жанре, автор более двадцати романов, многие из которых становились большими международными бестселлерами. Казалось, профессиональная судьба писательницы давно устоялась, ведь у нее есть все: признание, успех, положение. Но в 2015 году вышел последний роман Кристин Ханны "Соловей", который оказался совершенно не похож на все ее предыдущие книги – милые романтические истории. Книга сразу перевела писательницу в другую литературную лигу, она больше не автор любовных романов, а автор "Соловья" - романа, ставшего безоговорочным романом №1 в 2015 году, выбранного читателями лучшей книгой года, превознесенного критикой и возглавлявшего списки бестселлеров США более года. После этой книги популярность Кристин Ханны взлетела в космические выси, а сейчас ее последний роман становится главным бестселлером за пределами Америки.
