✦ Synopsis

From the acclaimed author of Susquehanna, Catch the Wind, Shadow Mountain, and The Skylark's Song comes an epic saga of an unforgettable American woman who is caught in the maelstrom of World War II. THE EXPATRIATE is a tale of international intrigue and danger, espionage and heroism...and enduring love.  Set in World War II Europe, its main characters are involved in the OSS and the Austrian Resistance. Alexa Summerfield, an American art history student at Oxford University, falls in love with an anti-Nazi Austrian doctor, in 1937.  They live in Innsbruck, but are soon torn apart by the advent of war.  The story is recounted in the 1990s by their daughter, whose quest to discover her father's fate leads her to one of the most remote regions of the world.
