In 1933 Berlin, Ziggy is expected to become the perfect Nazi son. But beneath his quiet obedience lies a gentle heart and growing doubt about the world around him.

As Germany descends into terror, Ziggy is drawn into a web of love, betrayal, and deadly secrets. He offers to save the girl he loves from disgrace, only to lose her in the cruelest way. His father pushes him toward a marriage meant to secure his future in the Nazi Party, but behind closed doors, scandal, deceit, and forbidden desire are already tearing the family apart.

Meanwhile, Greta risks everything to hide Jews in her basement as the noose tightens around Berlin. When Ziggy stumbles upon the people hidden beneath his own home, his life becomes entangled with theirs in ways he never could have imagined.

With war closing in and danger on every side, Ziggy must choose between the duty demanded of him and the conscience he can no longer ignore.

My Son’s Duty is a gripping World War II novel of forbidden love, family secrets, and impossible choices in the shadow of Nazi Germany.
