THE MISTRESS OF THE RITZ  by Melanie Benjamin   

​

A captivating novel based on the story of the extraordinary real-life American woman who secretly worked for the French Resistance during World War II--while playing hostess to the invading Germans at the iconic Hotel Ritz in Paris in March 1940.    There, under a roof legendary for its unprecedented luxury, the Nazis rule over a paralyzed city.  Its director and his beautiful American actress wife refuse to be defeated.  While overseeing the smooth workings of the hotel, they both throw themselves fearlessly into the dangerous and clandestine workings of the French Resistance to fight for freedom. The novel is a brilliantly and unforgettably vivid human portrait at a time of unimaginable crisis and sacrifice.
