From the bestselling authors of The Lioness of Morocco comes this award-winning story about two women who find themselves fighting side by side for the sake of their children in the tumult of the Second World War.
Winner of the Kindle Storyteller Award 2021 in Germany.


The Turbulent Quest for Freedom

In the small seaside resort of Heringsdorf, ninety-four-year-old Hermine Voßberg is looking forward to watching her favorite show about antiques and knickknacks with her son Artur and daughter-in-law Karin. When the appraiser discovers a sterling silver beaker with a cryptic engraving from 1944 in the secret compartment of an antique desk, Hermine bursts into tears, much to the confusion of Artur and Karin.

Under questioning from her bewildered son, she reveals a secret she’s been carrying for many years.

She tells them the story of her friend Paulina, a resistance fighter from Poland, who was desperately searching for her missing niece in what was then enemy Germany. When the two women met on an isolated compound in Pomerania, their race against the clock began. In order to save their children, they must make a pact against barbarity and despotism.

This is a moving story about a profound friendship that transcends hatred and nationalism.
Dramatic, evocative, and riveting.
