Product Details
Overview
Germany, 1942: Trudi traces the image of little Liesel sitting on the blanket; her huge, chubby-cheeked smile. She kisses the wrinkled photograph and closes her eyes as she promises: I will survive. No matter what, I will hold you again, my darling girl.
Her heart torn in two after sending her children on the Kindertransport, young widow Trudi Beck stays in Berlin to face the dangers of war alone. Living in the shadows is desperately hard, but Trudi must survive – her little girl needs her – so she can't afford to take any risks.
Yet as she sees her beloved home torn apart by unimaginable evil, and her heart breaks with grief at the loss of friends and family, Trudi realises she can't stand by any longer. She must fight back against the brutality of the Nazi regime. Trudi gives every ounce of her courage and ingenuity to the Resistance, where she meets Jakob, who teaches her how to lie and save innocent lives. But even Jakob can't quell the surge of guilt she feels with every risk she takes.
And just when it seems like the Allies are gaining ground and victory is within reach, Trudi realises she's taken one chance too many; she's arrested and her captors intend to make her pay. Can Trudi survive without betraying the brave fighters of the Resistance? Will she ever see her little girl again?
An absolutely unputdownable historical novel for fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Choice, and The Girl With No Name. A stunning, unforgettable story about the power of a mother's love and the will to survive against all the odds.
This can be read as a standalone novel, though it's part of the Hearts at War series.
