The Hollow Divide In the sweltering aftermath of World War II, The Hollow Divide unravels the story of Caroline, a war nurse-turned-housewife suffocating in the shadows of duty, silence, and a loveless marriage. When a wounded, starving woman collapses on her doorstep-Blue Star, a proud but broken Native-Chicana stranger-Caroline is faced with a choice that threatens everything she's been taught to believe. What begins as an act of reluctant care spirals into a collision of buried trauma, inherited hatred, and forbidden connection. Set in a time where compassion was a rebellion and love a dangerous defiance, The Hollow Divide is a haunting exploration of two women bound by suffering-and the chance to save each other from a world determined to keep them apart.
