A true story of heroism, heartache, and hope told through the eyes of a German girl turned courageous young woman named Waltraud. The Nazis tried to break her, but her very name means strength.

In Hitler’s Germany, loyalty is demanded and dissent is deadly. But for young Waltraud, nothing is more devastating than the day the Nazis steal away her father to fight in a war he didn't believe in. Even as their reign of terror spreads, she’s convinced war will never touch her quiet village. But when bombs start falling and innocent people disappear, she’s confronted with a stark reality…she might be next. That’s because Waltraud has been quietly resisting all along, and now she’s keeping a treasonous secret.

Waltraud's courage and resolve aren’t enough to protect the ones who matter most. But falling in love brings the hope of a new life in America, and an agonizing choice to leave everything behind. First, she must cross forbidden borders where she comes face to face with an enemy even more terrifying than the Nazis. Can Waltraud leave her haunting past behind and take hold of the life she’s dreamed of, or will she lose everything trying?
