Description

Berlin, Germany 1932.

In a time of political unrest and strife, one man finds the courage to fight back...

Dr. Wilhem "Q" Quedlin, chemical engineer and inventor, lives for his science. A woman is not in his plans—nor is it to be accused of industrial espionage.

But things get worse from there.

Watching Hitler's rise to power spurns his desire to avoid yet another war that will completely destroy his beloved country. Q makes the conscious decision to fight against what he knows is wrong, even if working against the Nazis could mean certain death for him— and anyone he loves.

Hilde Dremmer has vowed to never love again. But after encountering Q, she wants to give love a second chance. 

When Q discloses his resistance plan, it's up to Hilde to choose between her protected life without him or the constant threat of torture if she supports him in his fight against injustice. 

She has witnessed enough of the Nazi government's violent acts to be appalled by the new political power, but will this be enough for an ordinary girl to do the extraordinary and stand beside the man she loves in a time of total desolation?

This World War II spy story is based on the true events of one couple's struggle for happiness while battling a war against their own leaders.

    The two main characters are so very well-developed. Easy to read and hard to put down!

    This book took me by surprise. The author’s words beautifully capture mundane day-to-day life without being, for even one page, boring. Political and social changes are viewed through various relationships, each character offering perspectives of the country in flux. The romance is darling. I am captivated - ordering the next two books right now! Am happy that proceeds will further awareness to history and the value of every person!

    A true story, well written yet rather than use the main characters real names she made up their names. You are only given a small piece of so you will purchase additional books if you want to know more. That is why I only gave it three stars. Glad I received it free rather than pay for an incomplete book.
