FRANCE, 1944.

LOVE. COURAGE. SACRIFICE.

When Barbara Wilkes learns that the man she loves has been reported missing after D-Day, she refuses to accept that he is gone.

Leaving England behind, she crosses the Channel into a country still consumed by war, determined to find him. Guided by members of the French Resistance, Barbara is drawn into a world of sabotage, betrayal and impossible choices, where every step brings her closer to the truth — and closer to the enemy.

From the beaches of Normandy to the shattered streets of Caen, Pegasus Road is a story of love, courage and sacrifice, reminding us that even in humanity's darkest hours, hope is sometimes the bravest act of all.

“A powerful and moving story of love, loss and the human spirit in its darkest hour.”
