As World War II rages across Europe and the Pacific, its impact ripples through communities in the heartland of America. A farm girl is locked in a dangerous love triangle with two Germans soldiers held in an Illinois POW camp ... Another German, a war refugee, is forced to risk her life spying on the developing Manhattan Project in Chicago ... And espionage surrounds the disappearance of an actress from the thriving Jewish community of Chicago’s Lawndale. In this trio of tales, acclaimed thriller author Libby Fischer Hellmann beautifully depicts the tumultuous effect of war on the home front and illustrates how the action, terror, and tragedy of World War II was not confined to the front lines. "Libby Fischer Hellman powerfully illustrates what individuals could have faced while living in such perilous times. This is an engaging read with much food for thought." BookReporter.com "Well-crafted and interesting...strong emotion and a sense of threat carry the story along." Historical Novel Society "Fast-reading and well told, the three tales are intriguing, smoothly written and enjoyable. (5 Stars)Theodore Feit, Vine Voice "Libby Hellmann has created the perfect novel traveling back to another time and place." The Daily Non Pareil "Ms. Hellmann's love of history and thirst for knowledge shines through... a fabulously researched and beautifully told story."
