See You in Le Touquet

From inside her prison cell in Lille, France, Dorothy Borutti vowed she would embrace the first liberator who came to free her and her hometown of Le Touquet from the clutches of the German occupiers. She'd been thrown in jail as a political prisoner for listening to the English radio. How unfair! And how terrifying!

Meanwhile in Britain, Captain Sandy MacPherson was creating a more just Court Martials system for the Canadian Army, though itching to directly support Canadian troops in combat.

And that's how he found himself in Le Touquet, France, in the arms of Dorothy Borutti.

After the war, Dorothy followed Sandy back to Canada, where he became an esteemed judge in Saskatchewan. Dorothy embraced her new country while serving as a lifelong ambassador for France.

Their daughter, Canadian former journalist Romie Christie, shares glimpses of her parents' captivating lives through their personal journals, family stories, and historical records.

Theirs is a story of war, love, and peace. A story for the ages.
