In 1939, Drue moves to Paris with her adoring husband Jacques. My soon-to-be released novel Goodnight From Paris is biographical fiction, inspired by the extraordinary life of Hollywood actress Drue Leyton Tartiere during the war. My third novel The Secret Stealers is inspired by the women who served in the Office of Strategic Services, the precursor to the CIA, in WWII, including culinary icon Julia Child.

The Beantown Girls is based on the stunningly brave and fascinating true stories of the Red Cross Clubmobile Girls of WWII. I’ve had the honor of bringing some of these stories to light in my novels. Goodnight from Paris is out March 7th 2023.Īfter all that has been written about World War II, it’s amazing to me that we are still discovering lesser-known stories of women who played significant roles in that war.
