Description
Winter, 1945. Four teenagers. Four secrets.
Each was born in a different homeland; each was hunted and haunted by tragedy, lies, and war.
As thousands of desperate refugees flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom.
Yet not all promises can be kept.
Inspired by the single greatest tragedy in maritime history, Ruta Sepetys lifts the veil on a shockingly little-known casualty of World War II.
An illuminating and life-affirming tale of heart and hope.
