Publisher's Summary
Rebecca Neumanner's marriage is on the brink of collapse as her desire to be a mother becomes an obsession. Then she receives news from her estranged family in Rhodes.
Called back to the beautiful Greek island of her birth, she realises how little she knows of the grandmother she has eluded for over a decade. Bubba has never spoken of the Nazi occupation during her youth, but there have always been whispers. What desperate measures did she take that terrible day in 1944 when her family was ripped apart? Can the rumour she had blood on her own hands really be true? But Bubba intends to take her secrets to the grave.
However, as Rebecca arrives on Rhodes, bringing the promise of new life, this broken family must come together. The time has come to tell the truth about the darkest of days....
If you love The Island and Cartes Postales from Greece by Victoria Hislop , you will love this perfect summer listen from the author of Island of Secrets.

Great fascinating story
What a love story and hero life where not expected. Based on the cruel face of Jews under Nazi occupation and betrayel of their own countrymen, one girl was all but a victim. Fascinating, interesting, sometimes cruel as was the time.
Very well told. I highly recommend it.

A beautiful story
I was after a book that would suck me into its story, and this is exactly what this book did.
I loved the storyline, the raw emotions and the lives of the main characters.
A wonderful read.

disappointing
I finished this because I always finish a book. I enjoyed the historical aspect of the book but there was so much nonesense as it went on became unbelievable, and the fiction element went too far. There was so much sadness, it was just too depressing, time after time. And a cruise liner sinks, with a suspected husband on board and the wife goes off to a court case like nothing happened? The author tried to explain the reasoning but it was not believable at all. Do not recommend.
