About this audiobook
From USA Today bestselling author Kathryn Gauci comes a powerful and unforgettable story of one woman’s incredible will to survive and protect those she loves against insurmountable odds.
Vienna 1938: Austria’s leading couturier, Christina Lehmann, sits at the pinnacle of Viennese society. Her lover, the renowned painter Max Hauser, is at the height of his career. But Max harbors a secret, and it is only a matter of time before the Gestapo finds out. The situation takes a dramatic turn on Kristallnacht, when the pogrom against the Austrian Jews escalates and one of Christina’s Jewish seamstresses is brutally murdered.
In order to protect both Max and her couture house, Christina begins a double life, plunging her into the shadowy world of Nazi oppression, fear, and mistrust fueled by ancient hatreds.
As Vienna descends into chaos, hunger, and disillusionment, will her deception be enough to save Max—or will it end in tragedy?
Based on actual events, this is an epic story of courage and resilience. It is the kind of book that wraps around your soul and leaves an impression.
