Berlin, 1938. She'll do anything to protect the only family she has left.
Twelve-year-old Margarete has lost everything - her parents, her home, and the fragile safety of the orphanage she once knew.
When the Nazis target Jewish families across Germany, Margarete is placed on a Kindertransport train bound for England. She expects to face the terrifying journey alone.
Until a small, frightened girl is thrust into her arms.
Four-year-old Ilse is crying for someone to protect her. In that moment, Margarete makes a desperate choice that will change both their lives forever.
She tells a lie. She tells the world they are sisters.
As they travel across Europe to an uncertain future, Margarete vows to protect Ilse. But when they arrive in England, their fragile new family is at risk of being torn apart.
Now Margarete must fight harder than ever to keep the promise she made.
Because sometimes the strongest families are the ones we choose.
And sometimes a single brave lie can change everything.
A sweeping, emotional wartime historical saga about courage, sisterhood, survival and hope. Perfect for fans of Heather Morris, Fiona Valpy, and Kate Quinn.
