Overview
A riveting and colorful work of historical fiction based on the extraordinary life of a female correspondent who defied convention and danger to report from the front lines and became one of the most heroic figures of WWII journalism.
Washington, DC, April 1954: Lee Carson, former war correspondent, is frustrated that her journalism career has been relegated to society events and fashion stories. But when she receives a tip about a Russian spy in a high-ranking government position at the height of the Cold War, she feels the thrill of a story that she hasn’t felt since she was on the front lines of the European theater . . .
London, December 1943: As war rages on across Europe, twenty-two-year-old Lee Carson is waging a private battle of her own. An American-born correspondent for the International News Service, Lee is determined to cover the war from the field. But no woman, certainly not an attractive young woman with no military experience, will be allowed near the front lines.
Told in dual timelines, Beyond This Place of Wrath and Tears is inspired by the story of an incredible woman who has largely been forgotten by history, and who, like many women, broke barriers in wartime only to find that upon the return home, she had to continue to fight for relevance in an entirely different way . . .
