Paris, 1995: It's been five years since Lily Jacobsen and her best friend Mary Louise arrived in Paris from their small town of Froid, Montana. Determined to establish themselves as artists, they shared a tiny walkup and survived on brie and baguettes. But when Mary Louise abruptly moves out, Lily feels alone in the city of light for the first time and needs a new way to support herself. She lands a job as a programs manager at the American Library in Paris, following in the footsteps of Odile, her beloved French neighbor in Montana who told her stories of heroic World War II librarians when Lily was growing up. At work, Lily meets an extraordinary cast of characters--including her favorite writer, struggling students, haughty trustees, and devoted volunteers--each with their own stories ... and agendas. In the library's attic, Lily discovers a box of archives that may bea link to Odile's own Parisian chapter.
