In this heart-pounding historical novel based on true events, two Ukrainian sisters think they've been through the worst of World War II―but they're about to face even greater danger!
Afficher la description complèteWorld War II may be over. But two sisters are far from safe.
Sisters Krystia and Maria have been through the worst―or so they think. World War II ravaged their native Ukraine, but they both survived and are now reunited in a displaced persons camp.
Then another girl accuses the sisters of being Hitler Girls―people who collaborated with the Nazis. Nothing could be further from the truth; during the horrors of the war, both sisters resisted the Nazis and everything they stood for. But the Soviets, who are now in charge, don't listen to the sisters' protests. Krystia and Maria are taken away and interrogated for crimes they never committed.
Caught in a dangerous trap, the sisters must look to each other for strength and perseverance. Can they convince their captors that they're innocent―or escape to safety before it's too late?
