| Summary: | In the perilous days of World Wars I and II, the gods hold the fates and the hearts of four mortals in their hands. They are Hazel, James, Aubrey and Colette. A classical pianist from London, a British would-be architect-turned-soldier, a Harlem-born ragtime genius in the U.S. Army and a Belgian orphan with a gorgeous voice and a devastating past. Their story, as told by goddess Aphrodite to her husband, Hephaestus, and her lover, Ares, is filled with hope and heartbreak, prejudice and passion and reveals that, though war is a formidable force, it's no match for the transcendent power of Love. |
