De har stjålet hendes barn. Og hun vil gøre alt for at få det tilbage. Rygterne om de frygtede Brune Søstre hvirvlede gennem landsbyerne. Historien var altid den samme: Det Tyske Rige ledte efter børn med et arisk udseende, som de kunne give til partitro nazi-familier. Anna vil gøre hvad som helst for at beskytte sin datter. Alligevel kan hun ikke forhindre det, da lyshårede, blåøjede Ema en dag bliver revet ud af armene på hende af en af de Brune Søstre på det lokale marked. Anna har ikke noget valg. Hun bliver nødt til at ofre alt for at få sit barn tilbage og påtager sig derfor en ny identitet som glødende nazist for at komme tæt på Ema. Men nazisterne er allerede i gang med at hjernevaske Ema, og hun er begyndt at tro, at Anna slet ikke er hendes rigtige mor – men en løgner, der har stjålet hende fra hendes sande hjem i Riget. Hjertegribende fortælling fra anden verdenskrig baseret på sande hændelser.
USA TODAY BESTSELLER'We'd heard stories about the nurses in tent seven. A secret mission, stolen money, and spies...'In 1944, four American nurses disappeared for five days. No one knew what happened to them. Until now. When Kit and Red set foot on French soil during the Normandy landings, they know they have to rely on each other. As they head for the battlefield, their aim is simple: save lives. But when they're called away on a top-secret mission to patch up a few men behind enemy lines, everything changes.Alongside fellow nurses, Roxy and Gail, they're told to prepare for the worst, trading in their nurses' fatigues for civilian clothes and hiding medical supplies under their skirts. But it's a lie. Their real mission tasks them with the impossible - to infiltrate the Reich and steal something the Nazis desperately need to win their losing war.In an ultimate test of courage and comradeship, each woman must decide what she is prepared to risk and what she has to live for.
