Opal Before tells the story of Opal’s life before WW2 as she travels to France in search of the future she has always dreamed of, only to face the realities of war, and the cost of infatuation. Opal Vella has always dreamed of leaving her small island home in Malta to study dance in Paris. However, upon arriving with her cousin Celine and best friend Lulu, she quickly realizes that nothing is as expected. Opal is forced to mature rapidly in order to protect herself and her companions from others’ self-interest as well as the looming threat of war. A fateful injury lands her in the care of Andrei, a young Russian doctor with whom she develops a profound bond. But as the consequences of her choices begin to unfold, Opal faces the most difficult decision of her life-one that will shape her future forever. Opal Before is the thrilling second installment of the acclaimed Pier and Opal Series, that will leave you breathless and lunging for the final book in the saga.
