From acclaimed author of The Third Daughter comes an epic historical novel of ingenuity and courage, of love and loss, spanning postwar France when Israeli agents roamed the countryside to rescue hidden Jewish orphans—to the 1969 daring escape of the Israeli boats of Cherbourg. With memorable characters and fascinating historical settings, Carner weaves a compelling and engrossing tale that spans decades and continents.
“Historical novels don’t get much better than The Boy with the Star Tattoo, and it’s obvious that the author did her homework, then sat down to a labor of love. The mark of a great historical novel is where the fictional characters become more real than the historical events they are living through.
Talia Carner is a writer’s writer and a reader’s delight.”
–Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of THE MAZE
“Talia Carner, long established as one of the strongest voices in Jewish historical fiction, returns with her finest work to date, THE BOY WITH THE STAR TATTOO. Spanning World War II Europe to the struggling early state of Israel, Carner’s latest brings to light important history in a spellbinding and unforgettable human drama.”
–Pam Jenoff, New York Times Bestselling Author of CODE NAME SAPPHIRE
