California, 1938--When she loses her parents in an accident, sixteen-year-old Rosanne is taken in by the owners of the vineyard where she has lived her whole life as the vinedresser's daughter. She moves into Celine and Truman Calvert's spacious house with a secret, however--Rosie sees colors when she hears sound. She promised her mother she'd never reveal her little-understood ability to anyone, but the weight of her isolation and grief prove too much for her. In 1947, Helen Calvert, returning to her brother’s vineyard in America for good after witnessing firsthand Adolf Hitler’s brutal pursuit of hereditary purity, is drawn into battle at home when she discovers what really happened to the vinedresser’s pregnant daughter she had long ago befriended.
