Summary

Ukraine, 1941. War has ripped Katya’s country and heart in two. When two soldiers knock down her door and force her into a truck, she knows deep down that this might be the last time she ever sees home. As she is driven away to a labor camp, she looks out the tiny window at the barren winter landscape and thinks only of her son, Alexander, who she was forced to leave behind and may never see again…

Decades later, Katya has tried to rebuild her life after the horrors of war, but she still clings onto the hope of being reunited with her precious son. But little does she know that her son moved his family to America years ago in search of a better life.

Can she find peace without knowing what happened to him? Will Katya ever be able to reunite with Alexander and tell the truth about who she is? Or will they be defeated by the war that has already taken so much from them? Based on incredible true events faced by the author’s family, this emotional and gripping story of family, struggle, and the unwavering strength of hope is perfect for fans of The Four Winds, Beneath a Scarlet Sky, and All the Light We Cannot See.

Profile Image for Marilyn Mears

Engaging story which grips the reader from the start.

As with other books by this author, you are drawn into the story from the very beginning, I love how she writes, so engaging, each of the characters come alive and the love and empathy spill for each person, you really feel you are there.
I always enjoy Tatiana’s books. Thank you
