Josephine by Eilidh Mcginness

Born into poverty in a racially segregated Amercia, Josephine Baker flees to France where she embraces the hedonistic lifestyle on offer in Paris of the Roaring Twenties.

With Hitler's rise to power in Germany, Josephine is forced to face her true self. Determined to protect the Liberty Equality and Fraternity she has found in France, she becomes an 'honorable correspondent' for the French Intelligence Service. So, beginning a journey which will take her from the Red Cross Shelters in Paris, to a secluded chateau in Vichy France, to the cruel deserts of North Africa.

Whilst she will find love, passion and enduring friendship, she must also face dangers which will threaten not only her life but all she holds dear.

Can she find the courage to fight for what she believe in. no matter what the cost? .
