by Milree Latimer (Author)
Where is home when nothing is certain? 1913. Martha, fifteen years old, is sent from an orphanage in Dublin to relatives she's never met in Canada-to her cousin, Anna, a kindred spirit, and to her aunt who loathes her. Here Martha uncovers a tragic family history. When WWI occurs, Anna, voyages to France to care for the wounded soldiers and loses herself in shell shock. Martha leaves the emptiness of her adopted family and becomes a wartime farmerette. Her life is as a farmer, mother, and a wife to Charlie coming home from war, broken. In 1938, Simon Lansky, a German Jewish professor asks for help to save his daughters from a dreadful fate. Martha and Anna, hardened to war and its torments, travel to Europe to rescue the girls.
Will Simon survive the war and reunite with his daughters?
Will war define Martha and Anna, determine where they belong?
