      Get swept away by an unforgettable, breathtaking story of love, courage and dangerous secrets by Sunday Times bestselling author Anita Frank ‘Tender and evocative… ultimately humane and affirming’ Sean Lusk 'Vividly captures a time of tested loyalties, courageous defiance and the ever-present yearning for love, safety and peace' Daily Mail * * * * * May 1915. When his aircraft crashes in Northern France, British airman Henry finds himself stranded behind enemy lines. His survival depends on the courage and compassion of a local family who risk everything by hiding him in their farmhouse. With her village already suffering under Occupation, Marie knows sheltering Henry will put her in family in grave danger, and that peril only increases when two German officers are unexpectedly billeted with them. Forced to live cheek by jowl with their occupiers, it takes all their cunning to keep their deadly secret. As the shadow of war spreads, loves blooms, offering a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. But before long love is put to the test as everyone’s loyalty is called into question. The ramifications of the choices they must now make will be felt long after the war is over. Anita Frank’s captivating new novel is a deeply moving tale of courage and sacrifice. * * * * * Readers give Small Acts of Resistance five stars!: 'Compelling, gripping, brilliant' 'A beautiful, powerful and emotive read that completely stole my heart' 'With wonderfully conceived characters that perfectly capture the essence of the story, I was thoroughly enthralled by this captivating book' 'Brilliantly written, full of emotion, tension, and drama … a must-read for anyone who loves historical fiction that moves both the heart and the mind' 'A powerful historical novel that consumed me from the start' 'A beautiful story of love, resistance and humanity' * * * * * Praise for Anita Frank: ‘A heart-rending story of love, heroism and sacrifice’ Woman & Home 'Anita Frank writes with warmth about her characters and the jeopardies they face' The Times This gripping wartime tale … is testament to how love can blossom in the most unlikely circumstances' The Sunday Post 'Beautiful, evocative … a deeply moving tale' Platinum ‘A heart-wrenching and heart-warming tale of friendship, love, loyalty, bravery, survival and, above all, of hope. Spectacular storytelling!’ Diane Jeffrey ‘Rendered in Anita Frank’s beautiful and filmic prose, this is a story of courage and impossible choices in wartime rural France. I could not put it down’ Julia Kelly ‘Ingenious’ Sunday Times ‘Frank is a writer who I will continue to read, again and again, she never lets you down’
