Notes
Description
"Winter, 1945. Four teenagers. Four secrets. Each born of a different homeland; each one hunted, and haunted, by tragedy, lies . . . and war. As thousands of desperate refugees flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom. Yet not all promises can be kept. Inspired by the single greatest tragedy in maritime history . . . [the author] lifts the veil on a shockingly little-known casualty of World War II." -- Dust jacket.
