Description

A powerful and heartbreaking WWII historical novel. In Guernsey, 1940, as war storms through Europe, Churchill orders the evacuation of all military personnel from the island. Boats ferry soldiers and vulnerable young children to England, leaving their parents and loved ones behind to face the invading German army on their own. One of the few remaining policemen on the island, Jack must protect not only his friends and family, but also the woman he loves: Johanna, a Jewish nurse from Germany, whose secret faith could prove fatal to them both. When the Nazis arrive, everything changes, forcing Jack to make an awful choice between writing down Johanna's name and condemning her, or resisting and putting his family in immediate danger. The fate of those left behind hangs in the balance, as they face a terrifying reality: their past could kill you, while their love could save you.
