Description
Gretchen Muller has three rules for her new life:
1. Blend into the surroundings.
2. Don't tell anyone who you really are.
3. And never, never go back to Germany.
The girl known as Gretchen Whitestone has a secret: she used to be part of Adolf Hitler's inner circle. When she made an enemy of her old family friend, she fled Munich for Oxford. Her love, Daniel Cohen, is a reporter in town, and Gretchen is content. Then a telegram calls Daniel back to Germany, and her world turns upside down when he is accused of murder.
To save Daniel, Gretchen must return to her homeland and somehow avoid capture by the Nazi elite. As they work to clear Daniel's name, they discover a deadly conspiracy stretching from the slums of Berlin to the Reichstag itself. Can they dig up the explosive truth and escape in time - or will Hitler find them first?

Brilliant YA Historical fiction
Sequel to “Prisoner of Night and Fog”, Anne Blankman’s latest book follows Gretchen and Daniel to apparent safety in Britain.
Extensively researched, intelligent, and moving, Blankman delivers an exciting ride as Gretchen and Daniel return to Germany and try to stop Hitler’s rise to absolute power.
Whilst the book is fiction many of the historical events are true are obviously well researched. They are delivered in a compelling way which makes this book highly educational as well as entertaining.
As with all good fiction you really do care for the characters and Blankman has ensured that their actions and motives come across as realistic, rather than overly romantic.
An excellent read.
