Masterpiece!
Totally amazing story. The fear and contempt that surrounded Germany before and during WWII was greatly dramatized within this book. Anyone drawn to the historical WWII era will want to read this book. It was emotional and fearful because of the truth behind the actions of the Nazis and the power the Germans gave to Hitler. From the first words of the first chapter, the reader was drawn in and it makes you read all the way to the end. The book was long but the length was necessary for the great story it portrayed. I am a new fan of D'Ettore, reading first her "Tower of Tears" and reading this, I was not disappointed. I love her work and will continue to read whatever she writes. She just got a new fan for life.
