The Girl From Rue Serpente

About the Book

In the classical tradition of William Shakespeare's romantic tragedy, Romeo and Juliet, along comes a stunning new story of love in THE GIRL FROM RUE SERPENTE by novelist John Griswald. At once comical, haunting, and serious, in these pages irony and passion reign supreme - a tour de force reading experience, fulfilling the reader with its shocking and suspenseful climax.

The spirit of Paris during World War II, from the Nazi Occupation through the Allied Liberation, is breathlessly and breathtakingly captured - with all its magic and mysticism - from the sacred belltowers of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame to the notorious underbelly of the Latin Quarter.

As the seduction of the heroine Aimee Ange unfolds, you are held spellbound while you are drawn into the story's intriguing web. You are sure to fall in love with the beautiful Aimee and the handsome American soldier, Christian Gavin. By the same token, you will be repelled by Gaston, appalled by Dawson, and shocked by Father Cariot - characters you will love and loathe.

In The Girl from Rue Serpente, Heaven and hell collide with the divine and the damned...as star-crossed lovers meet their fate!
