Discover Martha's Vineyard beyond its beaches and summer charm in this dual-timeline novel that reveals the island's hidden WWII history. Set against the Vineyard's dramatic wartime landscape, the sisters create a women's book club that becomes a lifeline for their tight-knit island community facing unprecedented challenges: military occupation, forbidden romance and whispers of enemy spies among them. This discussion explores how Martha's Vineyard's unique geography and isolated community shaped both wartime resilience and long-held secrets, examining themes of island identity, the power of storytelling and how one small book club on this storied Massachusetts island may have influenced the war effort itself.
