"Will break your heart, but Leah Weiss's beautiful writing will sew it
back together again" —Wiley Cash, New York Times bestselling author
A Southern story of friendship forged by books and bees, when the
timeless troubles of growing up meet the murky shadows of World War
II. Deep in the tobacco land of North Carolina, nothing's been the
same since the boys shipped off to war and worry took their place.
Thirteen-year-old Lucy Brown is precocious and itching for adventure.
Then Allie Bert Tucker wanders into town, an outcast with a puzzling
past, and Lucy figures the two of them can solve any curious crime
they find—just like her hero, Nancy Drew. Their chance comes when a
man goes missing, a woman stops speaking, and an eccentric gives the
girls a mystery to solve that takes them beyond the ordinary. Their
quiet town, seasoned with honeybees and sweet tea, becomes home to a
Nazi prisoner-of-war camp. More men go missing. And together, the
girls embark on a journey to discover if we ever really know who the
enemy is. Lush with Southern atmosphere, All The Little Hopes is the
story of two girls growing up as war creeps closer, blurring the
difference between what's right, what's wrong, and what we know to be
true.
