Renate e Ilse se conocen en la escuela y se hacen amigas inseparables, unidas por su pasión por el conocimiento. Pero a medida que el partido nazi gana posiciones en la ciudad, las leyes de Nuremberg pondrán en peligro una amistad que parecía destinada a durar eternamente. Ilse se siente cada vez más atraída por las Juventudes Hitlerianas, mientras que Renate se ve forzada a confrontar un secreto familiar que su familia ha ocultado durante décadas.</p><p>Una historia de traición y remordimientos que no tendrá su cierre hasta el año 1989, cuando, en Nueva York, Ava Fischer recibe las cenizas de su madre, a la que nunca acabó de conocer bien, junto con un paquete de cartas que no llegaron a enviarse, dirigidas a la mejor amiga de infancia de Ilse, Renate. <p/><b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION</b> <p/><b><i>USA TODAY</i> BESTSELLER <p/>"Searing . . . a heartbreaking page-turner."--<i>People</i></b> <p/><b>"Both heartbreaking and hopeful, this story of a daughter searching for the truth about her mother's secret past, tangled up in old secrets and terrible lies, kept me up late turning pages."--Martha Hall Kelly, bestselling author of <i>Lilac Girls</i></b> <p/>Once inseparable, Berlin teenagers Ilse Fischer and Renate Bauer find their friendship ripped apart by their nation's abrupt swing into fascism.
