Valley of the Fireflies

Castello di Porciano. An ancient tower rising above the Tuscan hills; a place where fireflies dance in the twilight, and no one speaks of the terrible betrayal from the darkest days of the war…

Amelia is shattered from an unimaginable loss when she seizes a chance to escape to a remote Italian village. But shortly after arriving at the sun-drenched castello, Amelia discovers a trunk hidden in the basement, and beneath tissue-wrapped evening gowns that still carry the scent of violets, she finds a set of leather-bound diaries and charcoal sketches belonging to a woman called Flavia.

Through every haunting page, Amelia is drawn deeper into Flavia’s world as the Nazi occupation and her passionate love for a farmer’s son upend her life forever. But when Flavia joins the resistance and faces a devastating betrayal from someone close to her, the diary goes silent – the final pages torn out.

Desperate to learn Flavia’s fate, Amelia ventures into the cobblestoned village at the foot of the castello, where she meets an old woman who weeps at the sound of Flavia’s name, and her stern son, who shuts down any mention of the past. But as Amelia keeps searching for the truth, she begins to uncover a connection to Flavia she never expected – one that could shatter everything she believed about the past, and perhaps, show her a path to the future…
