Norway, 1942. She has lost everything to the Nazis. But now she fights back....

War rages, and, under cover of darkness, Rumi Orlstad and her fellow resistance fighters smuggle British agents, fugitives and supplies across the North Sea into Nazi-occupied territory.

One night, when he braves a storm to complete an ill-fated mission, Rumi’s fiancé is lost to the dangerous waters. Broken-hearted, she withdraws from the clandestine group, vowing never to let her loved ones put themselves in the line of fire again.

But months later, Rumi stumbles across a Nazi secret that lays Hitler’s plans for Norway bare, and she knows she has no choice but to risk her life for her country once more....

Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz and anything by Fiona Valpy will love this heartbreaking tale of the sacrifices ordinary people made to keep friends, family, strangers—and hope—alive.

A Must-Read, Rare retelling of WWII and the Norwegian Resistance

A Must-Read, Rare retelling of WWII and the Norwegian Resistance
This story is a riveting, unique tale of Norway during WWII and the strong, determined Rumi, fighting with the resistance against the Nazi plot to "strengthen" their Aryan bloodline by creating baby farms out of Norwegian women.Rumi, amid her grief of losing the love of her life, risks everything to protect her dear friend, who gets caught up in this baby trafficking scheme- including the lives of those she loves the most.This is a well-researched, eye-opening, page-turner of deplorable horrors the Nazis concocted and the redeeming side of humanity that brings life back to a part of this history that is rarely talked about. This does not disappoint! It opened a whole new perspective for me and made me want to learn more.

I've always loved WW2 novels and this one took me to new places around the world. Everyone was impacted by this war and I am so enjoying learning the perspective of different countries. Mandy is a wonderful author and I can't wait to read the next one.

Though I generally prefer a WW2 historical fiction book based on real people and events, I found this book very readable. It's a great story of love, commitment, bravery and endurance. Thank you. I'll read more of your books!

This book is amazing. I love WWll stories but this book could not be put down. I often felt like I was right there with the resistance fighting to win the war. I would recommend this to anyone who likes fast paced and realistic books.

Gave an interesting insight into WWII in Norway. This is the first of many books about this time in history but this is the first about Norway. Ms Robotham described the weather so good I am still cold.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book as it gave me an insight on the struggles of Norway in the Second World War. A fictional story woven into the real fabric that existed in Norway. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the history of Norway’s resistance to the Nazi regime.
