When words are forbidden, courage becomes the loudest voice.
Based on a true story.
Munich, 1942. As Hitler’s grip tightens, a small group of university students dares to resist. At their heart is Sophie Scholl – fiercely intelligent, full of conviction, and unwilling to look away. With her brother Hans and their closest friends, she forms the White Rose, a secret resistance group determined to awaken Germany’s conscience.Risking everything, they wage a battle not with weapons, but with words—printing and distributing thousands of anti-Nazi leaflets across Germany, calling for passive resistance and the downfall of Hitler. But as the Gestapo closes in, betrayal lurks in the shadows. When Sophie and Hans are caught red-handed at the university, their arrest sets off a dramatic chain of events leading to a show trial, a clash with the infamous Judge Roland Freisler, and an unbreakable display of courage in the face of death.
Based on true events, We Will Make Waves is a gripping novel of resistance, sacrifice, and the enduring power of conscience. Perfect for readers of Kristin Hannah, Heather Morris, and Ruta Sepetys, this is the story of ordinary students who chose to stand against tyranny – whatever the cost.
Somebody had to do something.
And they did.
