The Italian Secret
by Tara Moss - Fiction, Historical Fiction, Historical Mystery, Mystery

Pacific Ocean, 1907. A girl embarks on a journey to begin a new life far from home. Naples, 1943. A woman shelters underground from a wartime air raid, praying her husband will return home. Sydney, 1948. Billie Walker, returned from a stint as a wartime investigative journalist, uncovers a dusty box in her father’s old office whose contents --- correspondence with a woman on the other side of the world --- just might explain how they all are connected. Plunged into a perilous search that will take her onto the first postwar luxury passenger ship to sail across the ocean to Italy, Billie finds herself up against a dangerous adversary as she races to uncover the secrets her father left behind. And as the trail leads her towards two women whose histories may be entwined with her own, she realizes that her father’s Italian secret just might upend everything she thought she knew.
