  In Hitler’s Germany, loyalty is demanded and dissent is deadly. But for a young German girl named Waltraud, nothing is more devastating than the day the Nazis steal away her father and force him to fight on the front lines. Even as their reign of terror spreads, she convinces herself that war will never touch her quiet village. But when bombs start falling and innocent people disappear, she’s confronted with a stark reality… she might be next. 
  That’s because Waltraud has a secret. She’s been quietly resisting all along, and now she’s hiding someone in the barn. 
  In the end, courage and resolve aren’t enough to protect the one thing that matters most. But falling in love brings the promise of a new life in America and rekindles her hope. It also brings an agonizing choice to leave everything and everyone she holds dear behind. But first, Waltraud must cross forbidden borders where she comes face to face with an enemy even more terrifying than the Nazis. Can Waltraud let go of her haunting past and take hold of the life she’s dreamed of, or will she lose everything trying? 
  Waltraud: A True Story of Growing Up in Nazi Germany is a sweeping family saga that pulls back the curtain on what life was like during World War II from a German perspective.

  A courageous doctor and his apprentice fight to save London’s poor—and discover that the hearts of men can be colder than a winter chill—in this gripping holiday mystery from New York Times bestselling author Anne Perry.  
   
  Scuff has come a long way from his time as a penniless orphan scraping together a living on the banks of the Thames. Now he’s studying medicine at a free clinic run by Dr. Crowe, a thoughtful if stoic mentor. But lately Crowe has been distracted, having witnessed an altercation between a wealthy former patient of his  
  named Ellie—a woman he not only treated but developed unacknowledged feelings for—and her controlling fiancé. It seems that someone is forcing Ellie to marry the man. When Crowe’s emotions come flooding back, he sets out to uncover the troubling connections between Ellie, her father, and her betrothed.  
   
  With Crowe engrossed in his investigation just weeks before the holidays, Scuff is left to run the clinic on his own, treating London’s poor and vulnerable. In the holiday spirit, he offers Mattie, a young girl in need, a warm place to stay as the winter chill sweeps through the  
  city. Together, Scuff and Mattie must also fend off the police, who are growing suspicious of Crowe’s amateur sleuthing. Will Crowe be able to help Ellie, and will Scuff be able to ensure that he and Mattie—and all of their patients—have a safe and peaceful Christmas?
