In 1950, Jane Smith has survived Nazis, been jilted by an admiral’s daughter, and nearly lost the young woman she loves like a daughter to an illegal abortion. Now 36, Jane walks a razor’s edge—traveling 4,000 miles to France to do the work she was born for: providing abortion care while staying one step ahead of men’s laws. One mistake. One betrayal. The truth could bring the scaffolding of her life crashing down around her.

Amidst the turmoil of Occupied Paris, 25-year-old teacher Jane Smith is tested as she discovers that sometimes doing the right thing requires breaking rules when her Aunt Mathilde draws her into the dangerous task of smuggling Jewish girls out of France. Adding another layer of danger, the school’s doctor seeks Jane’s help in providing abortions, thrusting her into a clandestine world. Jane embarks on a mission to provide care for those marginalized by society, from migrant workers in California, to women in post-war Japan.
