Summary
Lucy told her mom she was going on an exchange program.
She lied.When her brother is drafted, she does the unthinkable: she takes his place.
Disguised as a boy, with her hair hacked short and her name swapped for his, she vanishes into a war that doesn't want her and wouldn’t spare her if it knew. What begins as a desperate act of love becomes something else entirely—a descent into violence, silence, and the kind of grief that hides in plain sight.
Inside the uniform, Lucy learns how to march, how to shoot, how to survive. She learns how to lie. And along the way, she meets people who change everything—friendships that feel like family, strangers who teach her what it means to hold on and musician whose songs stay with her long after the noise dies down,
But the war doesn’t just strip bodies. It steals names. Faces. Futures.
And when it ends, she’ll have to ask herself:If you’ve survived by becoming someone else… how do you come back as yourself?
