FREE: Two novels by Anita Shreve-"Resistance" and "Testimony"

The listing, Two novels by Anita Shreve-"Resistance" and "Testimony" has ended.

"Resistance"- Anita Shreve uses a wartime setting to sharpen the themes she has explored in previous novels--and leads us into a harrowing work where forbidden passions have catastrophic consequences. In a Nazi-occupied Belgian village, Claire Daussois, the wife of a resistance worker, shelters a wounded American bomber pilot in a secret attic hideaway. As she nurses him back to health, Claire falls in love and is soon locked in a passionate affair that seems strong enough to conquer all--until the brute realities of war intrude, shattering every idea she ever had about love, trust, and betrayal.

"Testimony"- At a New England boarding school, a sex scandal is about to break. Even more shocking than the sexual acts themselves is the fact that they were caught on videotape. A Pandora's box of revelations, the tape triggers a chorus of voices--those of the men, women, teenagers, and parents involved in the scandal--that details the ways in which lives can be derailed or destroyed in one foolish moment.
