‘An author to follow.’ Heather Morris, New York Times bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz
Everyone needs someone to trust in dark times — but what if you trust the wrong person?
Berlin, 1919: Renata Schmidt struggles to rebuild her life after the war,until a chance encounter with Erich Wagner quickly leads to love, marriage and motherhood.
But Erich has returned from the battlefield haunted and bitter over Germany’s defeat. With discontent and division in the country taking hold, he’s seduced by the charismatic Adolf Hitler and his burgeoning political movement.
As her husband’s political ambitions grow and Germany teeters on the brink, Renata must navigate love, loyalty, and the gathering storm, doing whatever it takes to survive and protect herself and her family. But survival comes at a cost — and every decision Renata makes could have devastating consequences for her neighbors and those closest to her.
Will she heed the warnings — or risk everything by standing on the wrong side of history?
An emotionally gripping historical novel about how ordinary people can fall prey to dark forces. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Kate Quinn, and Anna Stuart.
