2015 Carol award finalist!
Increasingly wary of her fatherâs genetic research, Rachel Kramer has determined that this trip with him to Germanyâin the summer of 1939âwill be her last. But a cryptic letter from her estranged friend, begging Rachel for help, changes everything. Married to SS officer Gerhardt Schlick, Kristine sees the dark tides turning and fears her husband views their daughter, Amelie, deaf since birth, as a blight on his Aryan bloodline.
Once courted by Schlick, Rachel knows heâs as dangerous as the swastikas that hang like ebony spiders from every government building in Berlin. She fears her fatherâs files may hold answers about Hitlerâs plans for others, like Amelie, whom the regime deems âunworthy of life.â She risks searching his classified documents only to uncover shocking secrets about her own history and a family sheâs never known.
Now hunted by the SS, Rachel turns to Jason Youngâa driven, disarming American journalist and unlikely allyâwho connects her to the resistance and to controversial theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Forced into hiding, Rachelâs every ideal is challenged as she and Jason walk a knifeâs edge, risking their livesâand asking others to do the sameâfor those they barely know but come to love.
