'A moving novel of strength and resistance in the face of evil but
also an inspiring journey of resilience after loss.' Erin Litteken,
bestselling author of The Memory Keeper of Kyiv A heartbreaking
World War 2 novel that tells the story of two women's fight for
love, family and hope, as the world crumbles around them. Based on
the true story of the Kindertransport rescue from Nazi-occupied
Europe. Berlin, 1936. The Landau family are at the heart of their
community, running a music shop in Berlin and just trying to
survive. But their lives are unravelling as Hitler's power
increases and the treatment of Jewish families deteriorates. Eldest
daughter, Rachel, fears for her sisters' future and will do
anything she can to keep them safe. Will she find hope in the
darkness? Paris, 1936. As whispers of war travel over from Europe,
American debutante Kay escapes her mother's grasp and travels as a
reluctant spy from Paris to Berlin. But a chance meeting with the
Landau family will change her life forever. Kay is determined to
give Rachel and her sisters a fighting chance in a society where
the youngest are paying the ultimate price, even if it means making
dangerous enemies along the way... As the world marches toward war,
these brave women will find strength in joining forces to save the
ones they love. But they will need the support of one another more
than they will ever realise in order to survive... A gripping and
heart-wrenching historical novel about hope, tragedy and two
women's limitless courage. Perfect for fans of The Tattooist of
Auschwitz, The Nightingale and My Name is Eva. What readers are
saying about The Orphans of Berlin: 'The Orphans of Berlin is a
moving novel of strength and resistance in the face of evil but
also an inspiring journey of resilience after loss. Delving into a
lesser known angle of the Kindertransport rescue efforts, Jina
Bacarr deftly combines history and compelling characters into a
fast-paced, emotional WWII story that readers will love.' Erin
