The German Wife

The bestselling author of The Warsaw Orphan returns with a gripping novel inspired by the true story of Operation Paperclip: a controversial secret US intelligence program that employed former Nazis after WWII. 

Berlin, Germany, 1930—When the Nazis rise to power, Sofie von Meyer Rhodes & her academic husband benefit from the military ambitions of Germany's newly elected chancellor when Jürgen is offered a high-level position in their burgeoning rocket program. Although they fiercely oppose Hitler's radical views, & joining his ranks is unthinkable, it soon becomes clear that if Jürgen does not accept the job, their income will be taken away. Then their children. And then their lives.
