Light Rises by Rachel Wesson

1942: As Nazi occupation tightens its grip on France, one woman's courage and compassion lights the way in the darkest of times...

Once a bright medical student with a promising future, Sophie B langer now finds herself risking everything to save innocent children from deportation. When her courageous efforts attract the attention of the Gestapo, she is mistaken for her twin sister - a notorious resistance fighter - arrested and sent to Auschwitz.

There Sophie must summon unimaginable strength to survive the camp's brutality and to put her training and her compassion for others to good use. Despite unthinkable odds, Sophie clings to hope - for the innocent lives she strives to protect, for news of her missing sister.
Will they live to see each other again? Will she ever reclaim the future that was stolen from her?

Based on true events and real-life heroes, this incredible story of courage, sacrifice and resilience will stay with you long after the last page. A must-read for fans of The Nightingale and The Alice Network.

Rachel Wesson is the author of several bestselling series including her latest based on the Orphan Trains. Having always been a fan of history, Rachel tries to combine her love of history with a good story.

While born in Kilkenny, Ireland, Rachel considers herself to be from the capital, Dublin, as that's where she spent most of her life. She grew up driving everyone nuts asking them questions about what they did during the War or what side they were on in the 1916 rising etc. Finally her Granny told her to write her stories down so people would get the pleasure of reading them.

Now Rachel lives in Surrey with her husband and three children, two boys and a girl. When not reading, writing or watching films for research purposes, Rachel likes to hang out with her family. She also travels regularly back home to Ireland.
