About this listen
She kneels by her husband, his face contorted with pain. “You must get yourself to safety,” he tells her. She grips his hand tighter as a tear tracks down her drawn, pale face. “I promised to stay beside you. I will keep that vow to the end.”
Berlin, 1944. Edith Falkenstein weeps with joy when the crowds of brave women protesting on Rosenstrasse manage to save their Jewish relatives, including her husband Julius, from deportation to the camps.
Julius once believed abiding by the rules would shield him and his wife. But now he knows better: there is no such thing as mercy from the Nazis, and they must do all they can to save others. Their apartment, long stripped of its luxurious furnishings, might offer little protection from the frigid winter air, but it has become a place of secret shelter—though it puts all their lives at risk.
As bombs rain a thunder of devastation on the city and Soviet soldiers close in from the east, the Nazis have only become more desperate, and more deadly. For the inhabitants, their only option is to flee. But when another raid leaves Julius critically injured, Edith realizes he is far too frail to make the perilous journey. She closes her eyes and prays for a miracle.
The final days of the war are here, but there is no cause for celebration in Berlin, where death lingers on every corner. Their love has been the source of their strength and survival all these long years, but will either of them live to see the end?
An absolutely and deeply heartrending story of one woman’s promise to protect the people she loves. Perfect for fans of The Nightingale, The Alice Network, and The Tattooist of Auschwitz.

In 1938, the world was at a crossroads. For Michael Fernsby, it was a choice between surrender and survival. But even he could not predict the lengths he would go to in order to stay alive. In the heart of Nazi Germany, Michael and his brother David embark on a dangerous mission to rescue their Jewish family members trapped in Bavaria. However, when their plan goes awry and they find themselves on the run from the Gestapo, they turn to an underground resistance movement for help.

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Atrocious Narration!
Story was good and I liked the series, but the narration was absolutely horrible!!! The over dramatic tone throughout the entire book made it really difficult to listen to. So sad because the story is actually interesting. Bad, bad narration.

Great period piece and tying in split family dynamics
It was hard to distinguish male characters at times from each other during dissection without the lead-in from the narrator
