From the Back Cover:
Anna has one chance for survival--and it lies in the hands of her mortal enemy. It's 1943 and Anna Zadok, a Jewish Christian living in Prague, has lost nearly everything. Most of her family has been deported, and the Nazi occupation ended her career as a concert violinist. Now Anna is left to care for her grandmother, and she'll do anything to keep her safe--a job that gets much harder when Nazi officer Horst Engel is quartered in the flat below them.
Though musical instruments have been declared illegal, Anna defiantly continues to play the violin. But Horst, dissatisfied with German ideology, enjoys her soothing music. When Anna and her grandmother face deportation, Horst risks everything to protect them.
Anna finds herself falling in love with the handsome officer and his brave heart. But what he reveals might stop the music forever...
My Thoughts:
Liz Tolsma's novel is one about courage and endurance as her characters face impossible situations.
The story was an interesting read and constantly kept me on edge wondering how things would play out with the Nazi's as they hunted down the Jews. This story is loaded with many intense situations as Anna and others attempt to stay alive. I enjoyed reading this story and learning more about this time in history. The author did a wonderful job at making the characters' faith real and transparent throughout the story. Liz's novel moved me and made me ponder how I face hardship in my own life. I look forward to Liz continuing the story in her next novel in this series coming out Fall 2018.
