Saint-Malo
The chapter opens with a vivid depiction of Saint-Malo's remaining inhabitants—those too stubborn, poor, or disbelieving to evacuate—as they react to the imminent threat of bombardment.

“Clair de Lune”
The chapter opens with Werner and his team stationed near the southern ramparts of an old city on a damp, foggy night. Werner sits in an Opel, monitoring a signal meter while his comrades, Volkheimer and Bernd, doze nearby. The stillness is broken when a faint radio transmission cuts through the static—a voice from Werner’s past, accompanied by the delicate notes of a piano. The broadcast, reminiscent of the Frenchman’s transmissions he once listened to as a child, evokes a flood of memories, leaving…-
