En un andén del París ocupado, una madre entrega su bebé a un desconocido. Es el fin. Y también el comienzo... Una deslumbrante novela sobre la brutalidad de la guerra y la tenacidad del amor. París, 1944 A una joven judía el futuro le es arrebatado en un segundo. Mientras se ve empujada hacia un tren con destino a Auschwitz, en un acto de desesperación confía su más preciada posesión a un completo desconocido. Todo lo que le queda ahora es la esperanza. California, 1953 Jean-Luc cree que ha dejado atrás su pasado. La cicatriz de su cara es un precio pequeño que pagar por sobrevivir al horror de la ocupación nazi de Francia. Ahora tiene una nueva vida en Estados Unidos, una familia. Nunca esperó que el pasado llamaría un día a su puerta. En la oscuridad de un andén, dos destinos se entrecruzan. Y sus decisiones cambiarán el futuro en modos que nunca podrían haber imaginado... ENGLISH DESCRIPTION One woman must make the hardest decision of her life in this unforgettably moving story of resistance and faith during one of the darkest times in history.   Santa Cruz, 1953. Jean-Luc is a man on the run from his past. The scar on his face is a small price to pay for surviving the horrors of Nazi occupation in France. Now, he has a new life in California, a family. He never expected the past to come knocking on his door.   Paris, 1944. A young Jewish woman's past is torn apart in a heartbeat. Herded onto a train bound for Auschwitz, in an act of desperation, she entrusts her most precious possession to a stranger. All she has left now is hope.   On a darkened platform, two destinies become intertwined, and the choices each person makes will change the future in ways neither could have imagined.   Told from alternating perspectives, While Paris Slept reflects on the power of love, resilience, and courage when all seems lost. Exploring the strength of family ties, and what it really means to love someone unconditionally, this debut novel will capture your heart.

El final es el más hermoso que uno pueda imaginar». -Historical Novel Society «Un debut que atraerá a los lectores fascinados por la Segunda Guerra Mundial y que se adentra en cuestiones eternas como: ¿hasta dónde estaríasdispuesto a llegar para proteger a un hijo? o ¿El amor es aferrarse con fuerza o dejar ir?». -Janet Skeslien Charles, autora de La biblioteca de París «Un final extremadamente conmovedor en el que incluso el más cínico de los lectores derramará una lágrima pone un gratificante broche a la historia». -Bookreporter.com «Druart examina el sacrificio, la generosidad y la resiliencia en este envolvente debut sobre el coste de la guerra y el precio del amor». -Toronto Star «Ruth Druart ha escrito una de las mejores novelas del año». -Red Carpet Crash
