This runaway bestseller captured the hearts of critics, booksellers, and readers. Journalist Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject when an unlikely correspondence begins with the residents of Guernsey, an island occupied by Nazis during the war. As she is drawn to their stories of their occupation, she finds particular interest in Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, a book club formed spur of the moment to provide an alibi and protect its members. Intrigued, she travels to Guernsey to meet the members, and finds her life changed in a way she never expected.
