The first YA novel from author Lorraine Campbell, Resisting the Enemy (Palmer Higgs, October, $24.95) follows the story of twelve year old Valli, from a fresh-faced schoolgirl in Australia, to a young woman living in German Occupied France.
Resisting the Enemy is a thrilling story of conflict, danger and passion, moving from the beaches of Australia, to the boulevards of pre-war Paris, through the German invasion and the dark years of the Occupation. It’s about the enduring bonds of friendship, and one young woman’s fight to resist oppression, no matter what the odds.
Meticulously researched by the author, Resisting the Enemy is the first in a two book series, and suitable for YA readers with an interest in world history.
Melbourne-based Author Lorraine Campbell has worked for decades as a Court Reporter with the Victorian Government Reporting Service, and has studied German and French for a number of years.
