All The Lights We Cannot See: By Anthony Doerr-- A Quick And Detailed Summary! (All The Lights We Cannot See: A Quick And Detailed Summary!! Paperback, Audio, Lights.)

Anthony Doerr's novel follows two young people whose paths cross during the Second World War. Marie-Laure is a French girl who has been blind since childhood. When the German army occupies Paris, she flees with her father to the walled coastal city of Saint-Malo, where a reclusive great-uncle lives. Werner is a German orphan with a gift for radios and machines. He is recruited into an elite Nazi school and later assigned to track down clandestine radio transmissions. The book moves between their separate lives during the war, and it touches on a legendary jewel that may be tied to both of their stories.
