World War Two is over. The wounds are not.
Germany, 1947. Roxi has survived what should have broken her. Piece by fragile piece, she is building a quiet life with her husband, trying to believe that healing is possible.
Then a lost talisman resurfaces.
It can only mean one thing: the man who destroyed her family is alive.
While a shattered nation is desperate to forget and the authorities demand impossible proof, Roxy is forced to confront the past she has fought so hard to outrun. The man who stole everything from her now lives safely under a false name in Essen—protected by silence, indifference, and a world eager to move on.
But Roxy cannot.
As she tracks him through a shattered country determined to look the other way, Roxy is drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse. In a time when perpetrators hide behind new identities and survivors are told to stay silent, her search for justice could cost her everything.
How far will she go to make him answer for what he did?
A gripping novel in the German Wife series about about the aftermath of the Holocaust, the cost of silence and a woman who refuses to be a victim ever again.
