Annotation: A tactfully written story about overcoming and surviving the horrors of World War II. Despite the bleakness of the novel's setting, love is still able to blossom. This novel has captured "both the power and poignancy of romance and the terror and tragedy of war." (Goodreads)

The Emmerichs take a Scottish POW by the name of Callum Finella with them in an attempt to escape Germany. Travelling through war-torn terrain will be the ultimate test of Anna's and Callum's love for one another.
