SELECTED AS A BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK A SUNDAY TIMES BEST PAPERBACK OF 2022 Born and raised in America, Mildred Harnack was twenty-six and living in Germany when she witnessed the meteoric rise of the Nazi party. She began holding secret meetings in her apartment, forming a small band of political activists set on helping Jews escape, denouncing Hitler and calling for revolution.
