"A powerful, haunting debut." ―Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Alice Network

Germany, 1944. Taken from the camps to serve the Führer himself, Anke Hoff is assigned as midwife to one of Hitler's inner circle. If she refuses, her family will die.

Torn between her duty as a caregiver and her hatred for the Nazi regime, Anke is swept into a life unlike anything she's ever known--and she discovers that many of those at the Berghof are just as trapped as she is. And soon, she's falling for a man who will make her world more complicated still…

Before long, the couple is faced with an impossible choice--and the consequences could be deadly. Can their forbidden love survive the horrors of war? And, more importantly, will they?
