The Garden France, 1944. Jessica Freeman carries her father's Winchester and a simple philosophy: gardens need weeding. Fifty rounds of ammunition. Fifty chances to balance the scales. Recruited by the OSS for skills the Army didn't want to name, Jessica parachutes into occupied France with a scope, a list, and Papa's ghost whispering warnings she's learning to ignore. Nazis. Collaborators. Rapists hiding behind uniforms and laws. She pulls them like weeds from the garden of the innocent.

Rei Shimura, a California girl living in Tokyo, has an antiques business that's only slightly more successful than her love life.

Then, on a sweltering, terrible August night in 1928, an explosion rocks Lamb’s Dance Hall in Possum Flats, Missouri, engulfing it in flames, leaving one twin among the dozens dead, and her sister’s life forever changed.
