Unlimited Books Free! For the Wittgenstein family the summer of 1915 was a time of both prosperity and unease as the guns of war sound in the distance. But for eldest daughter Beata it was also a summer awakening. By glimmering Lake Geneva the quiet Jewish beauty met a young French officer and fell in love. Knowing that her parents would never accept her marriage to a Catholic Beata followed her heart anyway. As the two built a new life together Beata's past would stay with her in ways she could never have predicted. For as the years pass and Europe is once again engulfed in war Beata must watch in horror as Hitler's terror threatens her life and family--even her eighteen-year-old daughter Amadea who has taken on the vows of a Carmelite nun. For Amadea the convent is no refuge. As family and friends are swept away without a trace Amadea is forced in hiding. Thus begins a harrowing journey of survival as she escapes into the heart of the French Resistance. Here Amadea will find a renewed sense of purpose taking on the most daring missions behind enemy lines. And it is here in the darkest moments of fear that Amadea will feel her mother's loving strength--and that of her mother's mother before her--as the voices of lost loved once echo powerfully in her heart. And here amid the fires of war Amadea will meet an extraordinary man British secret agent Rupert Montgomery. In Colonel Montgomery Amadea finds a man who will help her discover her place in an unbreakable chain between generations... and between her lost family and her dreams for the future--a future she is only just beginning to imagine: a future of hope rooted in the rich soil of the past.
