Description
Berlin, 1944. Lili Rodenberg pours champagne with steady hands, her smile perfect for the occasion. Behind the elegant facade of the Edel hotel, however, lies a desperate secret: she is Jewish. As the war escalates, Lili's husband Marius is called to the front and goes missing in action. Left alone to run the hotel, Lili must confront her own fears and find a way to protect those in danger. She begins to hide Jews in the hotel's wine cellar, a courageous act that puts her own life at risk. But as she becomes embroiled with the Resistance, Lili is faced with an impossible choice: risk everything to save others or protect her daughter from harm. A heart-wrenching story of bravery and sacrifice, this novel will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
