1943. La Germania occupa gran parte dell'Italia e le deportazioni degli ebrei aumentano di giorno in giorno. Fin da bambini Eva Rosselli e Angelo Bianco sono cresciuti come una famiglia, divisi solo dalla religione. Con il passare degli anni si sono innamorati, ma per Angelo è arrivata la vocazione e, nonostante i suoi profondi sentimenti per Eva, ha preso i voti. Adesso, più di dieci anni dopo, Angelo è un prete cattolico ed Eva è una donna ebrea che rischia la deportazione. Con la minaccia della Gestapo in avvicinamento, Angelo nasconde Eva tra le mura di un convento, dove Eva scopre di essere solo una dei tanti ebrei protetti dalla Chiesa.

Con il mondo in guerra e le persone ridotte allo stremo, Angelo ed Eva affrontano sfida dopo sfida, scelta dopo scelta, fino a che il destino e la fortuna non decideranno di incontrarsi, lasciandoli stremati davanti alla decisione più difficile di tutte

Tutti a scuola conoscono Blue Echohawk. Abbandonata da sua madre quando aveva solo due anni, Blue non sa se quello sia il suo vero nome né quando sia davvero il suo compleanno. Ma ha imparato a fuggire il dolore con atteggiamenti da ribelle: indossa sempre vestiti attillatissimi e un trucco pesante. E soprattutto il sesso è il suo rifugio, un gioco per dimenticare tutto, per mettere sotto chiave le sue emozioni. A scuola poi è un caso disperato. Eppure il suo nuovo insegnante di storia, il giovane Darcy Wilson, non la pensa così: Darcy crede in lei, e sa che Blue ha bisogno di capire chi sia prima di trovare un posto nel mondo. E così la sprona a guardarsi dentro e a ripercorrere il passato, a scrivere la sua storia, a dar voce alle sue emozioni. Tra i due nasce una grande amicizia, e forse, a poco a poco, qualcosa di più: un sentimento forte, travolgente, a cui ciascuno dei due tenta in tutti i modi di resistere...
