About
When bon vivant Italian opera star-turned-pilot Pietro is shot down during World War II he nearly loses his life. Worse, he's lost his passion for music and is close to losing his sanity in a soul-crushing prisoner-of-war camp in South Africa when he meets Iris. He has a vision of love worth dying for - worth living for - and realizes he must find his voice if he ever hopes to see her again.
Iris's dreams are at stake when she meets Pietro. All she wants is for her brother to come home alive from the war and to fulfill her destiny as a costume designer. She has her dream-come-true Hollywood invitation in the pocket of her hospital-volunteer uniform. But this redhead's life turns upside down as her eyes meet Pietro's through the cage of his prison. The world may be at stake, but so is her heart.
Pietro and Iris's secretive and daring courtship raises the suspicions of the bully who runs the camp, a scarred and damaged tyrant who has a dark desire for Iris.
Consummating the couple's almost mystical connection will mean escaping through the barbed wire, risking the deadly charge of treason for her and the firing squad for him.
Inspired by a true story, War Serenade is compelling, heart-wrenching, sometimes funny and always dramatic as it celebrates the human spirit, the evolution of rich friendships, and love's triumph against impossible odds.
