Amsterdam, 1943. Hanneke spends her days procuring and delivering sought-after black market goods to paying customers, her nights hiding the true nature of her work from her concerned parents, and every waking moment mourning her boyfriend, who was killed on the Dutch front lines when the Germans invaded. She likes to think of her illegal work as a small act of rebellion.

Summer reading that’s binge worthy!
Reviewed: 08-09-19
This book was on a list of required high school summer reading for juniors. I listened to have a dialogue with my daughter and ended up falling in love with it! Thankful for the author’s hard work researching to give a vivid picture of what real people in that hard time had to experience. The fictional characters are very believable and it would be nice to see how their lives turned out after the war. Worthy of a sequel!
