Evelyn Mae Harper never expected to survive her first mission, let alone end up assigned to Easy Company. A crack shot with more ghosts than allies, she joins the paratroopers in England in 1943 - a girl in a man's war, haunted by a past she doesn't talk about and a future she's not sure she wants.
But Easy Company is more than just another assignment. They're loud, loyal, broken, and brave. Whether Evelyn likes it or not, they start to matter. Between the weight of memory, the long shadows of Normandy, and the slow, terrifying pull of trust, Evelyn finds herself learning what it means to belong - and what it costs.
As war rages across Europe, Evelyn must navigate the battlefield, her buried grief, and the complicated ties she forms with the men around her - especially Joseph Liebgott, whose quiet watchfulness might just break through her armor, and Ronald Speirs, whose violence mirrors something she's afraid to face in herself.
She joined the war to disappear. She didn't expect to be seen.
