A prisoner of war. A guard with a conscience. A forbidden love that could cost them everything.
From the bestselling author of Love and Resistance in World War Two, Marion Kummerow, comes a harrowing historical fiction novel based on true events about forbidden love and survival under the Nazi regime.
Ursula Hermann is a simple woman who longs for the end of the war and the return of her husband from the Russian front. But fate has other plans for her.
She is ordered to guard a prison for the enemies of the Reich, where she encounters Tom Westlake, a Royal Air Force pilot who has broken free from his chains. Ursula defies her duty and lets him go, risking her own life for a stranger.
When Tom returns, wounded and in need of her help, Ursula looks the other way, risking her own life for a stranger.
In a world where right and wrong have lost their meaning, Ursula must make a choice: obey the fatherland, or listen to her conscience.
Inspired by true historical events, War Girl Ursula is the unforgettable story of one young woman's moral courage in the face of unspeakable suffering.

"This book is a great reflection of what happens when you ignore your moral compass because of blind loyalty. Ursulas journey reminds me of a quote I once read that stated "I love my country it's the government I'm afraid of."- Goodreads Reviewer
