[this] is a harrowing yet ultimately uplifting coming-of-age story about a young female translator--caught between societal and familial expectations and her unique ability to speak truth to power--as she fights to expose the dark truths of her nation's past. For twenty-four-year-old Eva Bruhns, World War II is a foggy childhood memory. At the war's end, Frankfurt was a smoldering ruin, severely damaged by the Allied bombings. But that was two decades ago. Now it is 1963, and the city's streets, once cratered are smooth and paved. Shiny new stores replace scorched rubble. Eager for her wealthy suitor, Jürgen Schoormann, to propose, Eva dreams of starting a new life away from her parents and sister. But Eva's plans are turned upside down when a fiery investigator, David Miller, hires her as a translator for a war crimes trial. As she becomes more deeply involved in the Frankfurt Trials, Eva begins to question her family's silence on the war and her future. Why do her parents refuse to talk about what happened? What are they hiding? Does she really love Jürgen and will she be happy as a housewife? Though it means going against the wishes of her family and her lover, Eva, propelled by her own conscience, joins a team of fiery prosecutors determined to bring the Nazis to justice--a decision that will help change the present and the past of her nation"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hana P/S Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Hess Missing Inventory Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Fiction Hess Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Hess Missing Inventory Add Copy to MyList
