‘Easily my favorite historical novel of the year If you love WWII fiction, this is a must read’ Soraya M. Lane, Amazon Charts bestselling author of Wives of War and The Last Correspondent

Rumours of the Nazis coming for Czech children swept through the villages like a breeze through the trees, and the story was always the same…They wanted our children to raise as their own

Since her husband, Josef, joined the Czech resistance three years ago, Anna Dankova has done everything possible to keep her daughter, Ema, safe. But when blonde haired, blue-eyed Ema is ripped from her mother’s arms in the local marketplace by the dreaded Brown Sisters, nurses who were dedicated to Hitler’s cause, Anna is forced to go to new extremes to take back what the Nazis have stolen from her.

Going undercover as a devoted German subject eager to prove her worth to the Reich, the former actress takes on a role of a lifetime to find and save her daughter. But getting close to Ema is one thing. Convincing her that the Germans are lying when they claim Anna stole her from her true parents is another…

'Oh my heart! This was such a poignant and powerful story…It will stay with me for a long time.' – Gill Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of The Lighthouse Sisters

Outstanding Story

I enjoy WW2 stories and this one didn’t disappoint . This has to be one of the top 3 narrators that I’ve listened to. Excellent work.

The story of survival

I loved everything - the story of survival and the readers. I could not stop listening.

Outstanding

So we’ll written and gripping story… love to hear multiple perspectives from the War… the narrative was perfect pitch and exciting to listen to.

Could not stop listening

I devoured this audiobook in just a few separate listens because the characters were so likable, the story flowed from scene to scene with no lags, and the plot was gripping. Plus, I LOVED the ending. Well done! I’ll be looking for more from this author.

Heart gripping, heroic, and finally some bit of a happy ending in a WW2 novel

I know most stories did not have a happy ending in WW2. This one, while still having so many tragic turns and twists, didn’t make me a blubbering mess at the end of the story. It had light in the darkness. The narrator was quite immersive and the story was one to remember.

Outstanding

An excellent gripping story that grabs your heart and doesn't let go. Excellent writing and excellent narration.

Emma

I could hardly put it down. such a great story of a mother's love for her child. thank you.

Emotionally heart wrenching

Loved the story, the characterization of Anna was great. I wish there was more to Paula’s motivations and on what happened to Dasha and Matka.

Enjoyed the novel

Narrative was a bit too intense for me. The sense of urgency in her voice was grating
