À propos de cet audio

 A stolen child. A terrible wartime secret.

Norway, 1940. Seduced by Nazi propaganda, Liv offers herself to the German High Command as war reaches rural Norway. She has something very special that they want in Berlin - but the personal cost will be terrible. Can she survive what she did as a naïve young woman in 1940?

England, 1968. Agnes, orphaned by the war, has grown up happy in the quiet wealth of the English countryside, raised by her adoring grandfather to be a perfect lady. But when he suddenly dies, she unveils a secret that changes everything. Agnes is not who she thought she was - and she is not safe.

Will Agnes pursue deep-buried secrets and put herself, and others, in danger? Will the truth set her free?©2024 Marius Gabriel (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK 20e siècle Fiction de genre Historique Bonheur Guerre

I enjoyed this book as it was well written and the story was interesting. The story looks at the people and places connected by war and it’s aftermath. This story is told in the first person by various characters with very different viewpoints. It was refreshing to read a story in this layout.

Post war Germany : those left behind

I didn't dislike anything, quite on the contrary. I've been reading paper books, then my kobo, then listening to books since I have been 8 years old. my first memories are of reading. I think A Wrinkle in Time, was the first I remember. This book was one of the better books in many years.
I recommend with no reservations.

The realism of the story

This is one of the rare books that is not in anybody's list, but a 'cant-put-down' kind of a book. I am glad it was suggested to me by Audible and I took a chance without any reference from my friends or lists.

The characters are beautifully explored, flaws and all! Based on Nazi Germany, there is bound to be cruelty and sadness, which normally is hard for me to take, but the hopefulness of central character Agnes, kept me going and I am so glad I did as I finished the book with tears rolling down my face.

Heart-wrenching, wonderful story superbly written
