Jennifer A. Nielsen, award-winning author of A Night
Divided and Rescue, artfully weaves together the
stories of five kids living through World War I, each of whom holds
the key to the others' futures ... if they are lucky - and brave
- enough to find each other.
World War I stretches its cruel fingers across Europe, where five
young people, each from different backgrounds and nations, face
the terror of battle, the deprivations of hunger, and all the
awful challenges of war.
Felix, from Austria-Hungary, longs for the bravery
to resist Jewish deportations before his own family can be
taken.
Kara, from Britain, dreams of someday earning
her Red Cross pin and working as a nurse - or even a doctor.
Juliette, of France, hopes her family can remain
knitted together, despite her father's imprisonment, as the
war's longest battle stretches on and on.
Elsa, from Germany, hopes her homing pigeon might
one day bring her a friend from out of the chaos.
And Dimitri, of Russia, wants only to survive
the front, where he's been sent with no weapon.
None of them will find exactly what they want. But the winds of
fate may cross their paths to give each of them just what they
need. And in this remarkable exploration of World War I by critically
acclaimed author Jennifer A. Nielsen, they will discover that
friendship and courage can light the way through the most frightening
of nights.
