Summary
They are Hazel, James, Aubrey, and Colette.
A classical pianist from London…
A British would-be architect turned soldier…
A Harlem-born ragtime genius in the U.S. Army…
A Belgian orphan with a gorgeous voice and a devastating past.
Their story is told by the goddess Aphrodite, who must spin the tale or face judgment on Mount Olympus
It is a tale filled with hope and heartbreak, prejudice and passion, and reveals that, though War is a formidable force, it's no match for the transcendent power of Love. (From the publisher.)
