Telling Lies

Against the background of paranoia, fear, and betrayal that is German - occupied France in 1942, a defiant French family decide to help Paul, a downed New Zealand airman. If they are to hide him, smuggle him to safety, and survive, they must weave a web of lies. The final act of daring and deceit falls to fifteen - year - old Simone. If she accepts the ultimate challenge - to get the airman across Occupied France to safety - she must use her wits as never before. With spies at every corner, this is a race against time and there will be no second chances. The difference between success and failure is one of life or death.
