Mary Wood: Her Hidden Courage, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Can she defy the odds to follow her heart? London, 1939. With war imminent in Poland, nineteen-year-old Tamar and her father flee to the heart of the East End. Tamar becomes close friends with nurse Florence and local shopkeeper Elma, but their joy quickly falls apart as bombings land and they are driven into hiding.

Isaac, Tamar's fiancé, departs for Poland to help in the service of war, carrying with him a silver clasp from Tamar's bracelet as a token of her love. When the war's devastation reaches her doorstep, Tamar is recruited for espionage in a bid to find Isaac and, amid the shadows of the resistance, she learns of his brave actions inside the camps - but fears for his life.

When those fears come true, Tamar's world is shattered and, completely heartbroken, she returns to London - to the women and community she has come to know as her family and home. Together, in the heart of Brick Lane, they rebuild their lives and hold on to hope - but then Isaac's silver clasp returns . . .
