About this listen
All her life, Hannah Sterling longed for a close relationship with her estranged mother. Following Lieselotte's death, Hannah determines to unlock the secrets of her mother's mysterious past and is shocked to discover a grandfather living in Germany. Thirty years earlier, Lieselotte's father is quickly ascending the ranks of the Nazi party, and a proper marriage for his daughter could help advance his career.
Lieselotte is in love - but her beloved Lukas is far from an ideal match, as he secretly works against the Reich. Yet Lieselotte never imagined how far her father would go to ensure her cooperation. Both Hannah's and Lieselotte's stories unfold as Hannah travels to Germany to meet her grandfather, who is hiding wartime secrets of his own.
Longing for connection yet shaken by all she uncovers, Hannah must decide if she can atone for her family's tragic past and how their legacy will shape her future.

This book delivered, delivered and delivered yet again.
An amazing insight into both sides of the most appalling betrayal. The story leaves you sickened one minute and then uplifted by a wonderful love story the next.

Sins of our parents
Brilliant story - a very interesting perspective of living in Germany during WW2. Couldn’t stop listening.

Good story although a little predictable. I enjoyed it but joins the other similar holocaust stories

Excellent war story
Loved the way it went from 1973 to the war years - gave an excellent though heartbreaking description of the war years and life in Berlin in 1973 - found the American voice annoying at times

last chapter
The last chapter was jarring for me. Sounded too much of a lecture on the ‘benefits’ of religion. For me this spoiled the book but up to that I enjoyed the story

Very interesting
The end forgiveness too long . And some part of execution too bloody and gory but very realistic

OK
Generally good story. Narrator's pronunciation was a little annoying. And a bit too much God for my taste (especially near the end).

Interesting story that fizzled out
Started out as an interesting story but became a touch ridiculous with the storyline around her adoptive American soldier father. The last few chapters were also too focused on God. The grandfather was an odd character too and too many interpersonal relationships were not explored in enough depth. It was also really irritating that she persisted in dropping in the odd German words. Disappointing
