A bridge across the ocean

Summary: World War Two is over: Annaliese Lange, a German ballerina desperate to escape her past, and Simone Deveraux, the wronged daughter of a French Resistance spy, are joining hundreds of other European war brides aboard the renowned RMS Queen Mary to cross the Atlantic and be reunited with their American husbands. Their tightly-held secrets are laid bare in their shared stateroom; when the voyage ends at New York Harbor, only one of them will disembark. Present day: Brette Caslake visits the famously haunted Queen Mary at the request of an old friend. What she finds will set her on a course to solve a seventy-year-old tragedy, draw her into the heartaches and triumphs of the courageous war brides-- and will ultimately lead her to reconsider what she has to sacrifice to achieve her own deepest longings.
