Synopsis
In 1942, Charlotte Gray, a young Scottish woman, heads for Occupied France on a dual mission - officially, to run an apparently simple errand for a British special operations group and unofficially, to search for her lover, an English airman missing in action.
As the people in the small town of Lavaurette prepare to meet their terrible destiny, the harrowing truth of what took place in 'the dark years' is finally revealed.

"As he so successfully did with the trenches of the First World War in Birdsong, Faulks similarly evokes the atmosphere of the Second...Novelists are masters of the imagination. Faulks is beyond doubt a master" - Brian Martin, Financial Times
-
"With Charlotte Gray, Sebastian Faulks completes a trilogy of novels set in France...it is an impressive body of work, marking Faulks's graduation to one of the most impressive novelists of his generation...testifies to the artistry of a novelist who is growing in authority with every book" - David Robson, Sunday Telegraph
