Fiction

It’s 1935. Rita Feuerstahl comes to the university in Krakow intent on enjoying her freedom. But life has other things in store—marriage, a love affair, a child, all in the shadows of the oncoming war. When the war arrives, Rita is armed with a secret so enormous that it could cost the Allies everything, even as it gives her the will to live. She must find a way both to keep her secret and to survive amid the chaos of Europe at war. Living by her wits among the Germans as their conquests turn to defeat, she seeks a way to prevent the inevitable doom of Nazism from making her one of its last victims. Can her passion and resolve outlast the most powerful evil that Europe has ever seen?

In an epic saga that spans from Paris in the ’30s and Spain’s Civil War to Moscow, Warsaw, and the heart of Nazi Germany, The Girl from Krakow follows one woman’s battle for survival as entire nations are torn apart, never to be the same.

Re: The Girl from Krakow

This book spoke volumes to me, but perhaps it could be
for the wrong reasons. Nevertheless, I'm still
interested in reading it. I'm of Polish decent, and my
Father served during WWII. I try to read any books that
are set during that time period, as a way to try and
understand what happened, since he never told me what
took place. All I know is that he received a medal, and
was almost killed by the Nazis. Thank you for keeping a
part of History alive, even if it is unpleasant to
remember. This generation should know what took place,
just as future generations will be reminded of 9/11 and
about the Middle East. Congratulations on your book, and
I'm sure it will do well!! The cover was very
artistically done, too!!
