Acerca de esta escucha
The truck stopped for a moment in the freezing, bombed-out street, and Kate caught sight of a little girl in a ragged dress on the steps of a once-beautiful mansion. The child’s eyes were startling blue, a pair of endless pools, drawing Kate towards her....
1946, Berlin. War correspondent Kate Mancini is in Germany, reporting on the aftermath of the devastating war. For her readers back home in New York, she tells the stories of innocent families, trying to rebuild the wreckage of their lives now the soldiers have left at last. But in the Russian-held sector of Berlin on an icy winter’s day, Kate breaks all the rules, rescuing Mia Stein, a silent orphan who she fears will otherwise perish.
Together with her fellow journalist, handsome Rick Shearer, Kate manages to find a safe house for Mia before she returns to America and vows to keep in touch. Back home, the reality of postwar life for women is stark. Whilst Rick walks into his dream job, no newspaper will hire a woman. The editors laugh her out of their offices, telling her to get married and raise a family. Rick does all he can to support her, as she takes her first steps towards the new medium of television news, and their friendship deepens into something more.
Then tragedy strikes: Rick is falsely named as a communist sympathizer. He is arrested, blacklisted, and faces prison.
Kate knows she must do all she can to free the man she loves. But that means returning to Germany, to seek out the little orphan girl who is her only chance at salvation. Kate and Rick saved Mia - will she help them both now? And even if Kate succeeds, freedom might never be hers when she returns home....
From Amazon Charts best seller Ella Carey comes an utterly heartbreaking historical novel, inspired by true events, about the courage, love, and friendships that sustain us in the darkest of days. Fans of Fiona Davis, All the Light We Cannot See, and My Name is Eva will be totally captivated.

Paris, 1944. “Traitor!” yells the crowd as they push me down onto a stool. “Nazi collaborator.” Tears blur my vision as the razor grazes my scalp, waves of blonde hair falling to the ground. As men paint a swastika across my face, I hold onto one small glimmer of hope. They have no idea who I am.

In enemy-occupied Paris, as the locals go to bed starving and defeated by the war, music and laughter spills through the door of a little restaurant, crowded with German soldiers. The owner, Marianne, moves on weary feet between its packed tables, carrying plates of steaming, wholesome food for the enemy officers. Her smile is bright and sparkling, her welcome cordial. Nobody would guess the hatred she hides in her heart. That night, the restaurant closes its doors for the final time.

The glimmering Huguenot cross she so innocently wears leads her deep into the shadows. When Gabriella Madison arrives in the French village of Castelnau in 1961 to continue her university studies, she doesn’t anticipate being drawn into the secretive world behind the Algerian war for independence from France. And the further she delves into the war efforts, the more her faith is challenged. The people who surround her bring a whirlwind of transforming forces.

The seat of the Trelawney family for over 700 years, Trelawney Castle was once the jewel of the Cornish coast. Each successive Earl spent with abandon, turning the house and grounds into a sprawling, extravagant palimpsest of wings, turrets, and follies. But as the centuries passed the Earls of Trelawney, their ambition dulled by generations of pampered living, failed to develop other skills.

Improbable Incoherent Plot
I have read a couple books by this author. They were OK however this one was not. There were too many sub-plots
which made the story flow in an awkward manner A lot of very preachy women's Lib nonsense.
An awful lot of syrupy dialogue. and unlikeable secondary characters. Willard and Frances!
Historically it moved very quickly over important events. ie. The Berlin Blockade and Airlift.
The "Lost Girl" angle was supposed to be important but was rather secondary.
Enter the Communist/Russian agent Twist.! Really DUMB and over dramatic.
Overall, it was a pretentious and annoying book.
The Narration was OK with the Female voices but the male voices with the exception of Rick were AWFUL'
Will skip the next in the series.
Try Hazel Gaynor or Jennifer Robson for Historical fiction instead.
