Here’s the set-up:

A Historical Holocaust novel, inspired by factual events that took place in Nazi occupied Germany

FACT: In 1935, the Nazis established a program called “The Lebensborn.”

Their agenda, was to genetically engineer perfect Aryan children.

These children were to be the new master race, once Hitler had cleared all undesirable elements (Jews, Gypsies, and everyone else the Nazi’s felt had no right to live) out of Europe. Within a year the first Lebensborn institution was built and the program was underway.

“A Flicker Of Light”

The year is 1943….

The forests of Munich are crawling with danger under the rule of “The Third Reich,” but in order to save the life of her unborn child Petra Jorgenson must escape from the home for the Lebensborn. Alone, seven months pregnant, penniless and ever threatened by the watchful eyes of the armed guards in the overhead tower, she waits until the dead of a frozen winter night. Then, Petra climbs under the flesh shredding barbed wire that surrounds the institute and at the risk of being captured and murdered she runs headlong into the terrifying desolate woods.

Even during one of the darkest periods in the history of mankind, when horrific acts of cruelty became commonplace and Germany seemed to have gone crazy following the direction of a madman, sometimes ordinary people took monumental risks and proved to be unexpected heroes. And even through there were those who would try to destroy it, true love would prevail. Here, in this lost land ruled by human monsters, Petra will learn that even when faced with what appears to be the end of the world if one looks hard enough there is always “A Flicker Of Light.”

5-star Amazon reviews:

“Another wonderful book by Roberta Kagan. The characters are well developed and I like how they intertwine in the story. Although there is much description about the horrific atrocities of the war and the concentration camps, etc., this story largely takes place at a farmhouse in Germany. It made me want to keep reading, because it seemed there was always a twist to the plot. Definitely a good read.”

“If You are a WWII buff like I am, you will love this book. I really enjoyed seeing the growth of the main characters throughout this story. The book gives you an idea of how horrible it must have been living in Germany during this horrible time no matter your race or religion. It was also very suspenseful. It gives one hope for the human race.”
