Queen of Hearts
Written by Martha Brooks
It’s 1941, and Canada is two years into World War II. Fifteen-year-old Marie-Claire Côté begins a war of her own as she and her siblings are stricken with tuberculosis and are sent to a sanatorium to “chase the cure.” Marie-Claire longs for privacy, finds a loyal friend in her roommate and falls for fellow patient Jack Hawkings, the 19-year-old musician with the heart-stopping smile.
