About the Book:
A forbidden romance in occupied Norway…
Narvik, 1940. After Laila awakens to the sight of warships
in the fjord, it isn't long before she turns resistor to the brutal Nazi
regime. She is horrified when local girls begin affairs with enemy soldiers,
yet against her own principles, she finds herself falling in love with German
soldier, Josef.
Josef is not like the others. He becomes involved in helping
her and the locals with resistance activities, risking his life on more than
one occasion.
But then Laila finds out she is pregnant. With Josef sent to
the Russian front, and Laila cast out by her family, she turns to a home for
women which promises to care for her and her unborn child. But instead, she
finds herself caught in a system of evil far beyond what she thought possible…

About the Author:
Helen Parusel is from London but now lives in Hamburg,
Germany with my husband and daughter. She gave English lessons to retired
Germans for twenty years and became intrigued by many of their wartime stories.
Her mother comes from Linz, Austria and she spent her summer holidays there for
years which inspired my next novel. She has always loved reading and writing,
and now finally have the time to devote to writing.
