A Mother's Promise by Rachel Wesson
Germany, 1942: Trudi, Ada pleaded. How will we survive? Our rations aren't enough to keep one person alive let alone two.
Trudi took her friend's hands in hers. We'll stick together. We made a promise to our children, remember?
Her heart torn in two after sending her children away on the Kindertransport, Trudi Beck stays behind in Berlin, devastated, to face the dangers of war alone. But living in the shadows is desperately hard, and survival takes every ounce of courage and ingenuity.
Unable to bear the persecution of her people, Trudi begins to fight back against the oppression and brutality of the Nazi regime, determined to save as many lives as possible. Despite everything she refuses to give up hope, and, in the darkest days of the war, she finds solace in a fellow resistant, Jakob, who lights a fire in her and helps to mend her broken heart.
In England, Trudi's stepson, Harry, is finding his own way to right the wrongs done to their family. He joins the Allies -- enduring prejudice and discrimination as a German national - risking everything, including his own life, in his quest for revenge.
As the war draws to a close, Trudi's resistance group is close to achieving their goals. But just when it seems like victory is within reach, Trudi is arrested. Her captors know everything - and intend to make her pay.
Her dream of seeing her baby daughter again seems impossible now. Can she keep the promise she made, after all?
Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Choice, and The Girl With No Name will be swept away by this gripping story of the power of a mother's love and the will to survive against all the odds.
