Description <p>1941, Nazi-occupied Holland. Trudi can hear the muffled sobs of two heartbroken little girls as they peer wide-eyed from their hiding place behind the bookcase. Rosy and Louisa&rsquo;s parents have been dragged away by soldiers. Now Trudi is the only one who can keep them safe ... When Nazis break down the front door of eighteen-year-old Trudi's home and seize the Jewish couple hiding in her attic, she's devastated, and is suddenly solely responsible for their two innocent children. The whispered rumours about the resistance are her only hope. A man called Frans and his cousin Piet risk their lives every day, helping scared and abandoned Jewish children escape into the countryside. Under the cover of night she races to beg for their help. When the girls are offered a safe house, Trudi is relieved. But with soldiers on every corner of the cobbled streets, getting there will be extremely dangerous ... she must dress up in a German nurse's uniform and convince anyone who asks that she is transporting two children to hospital. Trudi will have to give up everything to protect Rosy and Louisa. She will have to lie to her friends and family, and learn to fire a weapon that could take someone's life.
