What We May Become

About the author

Teresa Messineo is motivated by social justice, and giving voice to the silenced. Her first novel, The Fire by Night, showcased the heroic and often overlooked work of frontline military nurses of the Second World War. Writing that novel involved seven years of research.

Teresa is also the mother of four children, whom she home schooled for twenty years. Her varied interests include medicine, swing dancing, lecturing, studying foreign languages, distance swimming, hunger relief, travel, and hiking.

Summary

American Red Cross nurse Diana Bolsena is desperate to return to the frontline of the war efforts. However, she finds herself stranded in Tuscany. When a German officer arrives searching for secrets that could change the course of humanity, Diana realizes she could do more good here than on the frontline... if she can get to the secrets first.
