About this listen

Inspired by real events, the New York Times bestselling author of The Warsaw Orphan returns with an unpauseable novel of a community torn apart when a former Nazi family moves into town to work on NASA's space programme.

Berlin, 1934. Sofie Rhodes is the aristocratic wife of a scientist whose post-WWI fortunes change for the better when her husband, Jurgen, is recruited for Hitler's new rocket project. But too late they realise the Nazis' plans to weaponise Jurgen's technology as they begin to wage war against the rest of Europe.

Alabama, 1949 Jurgen is one of hundreds of Nazi scientists offered pardons and taken to the US to work for the CIA's fledgling space programme. Sofie, now the mother of four, misses Germany terribly and struggles to fit in among the other NASA wives.

When news about the Rhodes family's affiliation with the Nazi party spreads, idle gossip turns to bitter rage, and the act of violence that results will tear apart a community and a family before the truth is finally revealed—but is it murder, revenge or justice?

"A fast-paced, emotional and utterly riveting tale of love, loss and the choices we make to protect our families—a must-read." (Kristin Harmel)
