"This story makes a strong contribution to Latvian history and the history of women. It deserves the widest possible readership."

"This is the story that needed to be told and now needs to be absorbed."


Book Description
A young Latvian woman is caught up in a whirlwind of war forcing her into an unnatural migration for life. Her life is saved by good timing, acts of kindness, her own passivity, and a stranger in uniform. A story of extraordinary strength and honesty. An insight into daily living inside Nazi Germany for those forced to fly before they had wings of courage.
