Can she find the missing pieces of her early life?

1980, Washington DC: Margaret Richardson dreams about an emaciated little girl in torn and dirty clothes who speaks a language she cannot understand.

Margaret finds two documents and a newspaper clipping in a secret compartment in her father's desk. A woman in the 1944 newspaper article standing next to Hitler so closely resembles Margaret that she could be her twin. Unable to accept her father's meager explanations, Margaret travels first to Rotterdam and then to Berlin to uncover the truth no matter how painful and the long suppressed memories of war, abandonment, and murder. And who she meets in Berlin, are the very people who murdered her grandmother.

Margaret meets a Dutch general, Pieter van Leeuvan. Pieter is intrigued by Margaret's story, and decides to help her search for any information about Elsbet van Rippenhof. But Pieter is also intrigued by Margaret, and they move inexorably into a love that was meant to be.
