520    "Skillfully researched and powerfully written, The German 
       Wife will capture you from the first page." -Madeline 
       Martin, New York Times bestselling author of The Last 
       Bookshop in London  The New York Times 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, 1930-When a wave of 
       change sweeps a radical political party to power, Sofie 
       von Meyer Rhodes's academic husband benefits from the 
       ambitions of its newly elected chancellor. Although Sofie 
       and Jürgen do not share the social views growing popular 
       in Hitler's Germany, Jürgen's position with its burgeoning
       rocket program changes their diminishing fortunes for the 
       better. But as Sofie watches helplessly, her beloved 
       Berlin begins to transform, forcing her to consider what 
       they must sacrifice morally for their young family's 
       security, and what the price for their neutrality will be.
       Twenty years later, Jürgen is one of the many German 
       scientists offered pardons for their part in the war, and 
       taken to America to work for its fledgling space program. 
       For Sofie, this is the chance to exorcise the ghosts that 
       have followed her across the ocean, and make a fresh start
       in her adopted country. But her neighbors aren't as 
       welcoming or as understanding as she had hoped. When 
       scandalous rumors about the Rhodes family's affiliation 
       with Hitler's regime spreads, idle gossip turns to bitter 
       rage, and the act of violence that results will tear apart
       Sofie's community and her family before the truth is 
       finally revealed.   "An unforgettable novel that explores 
       important questions highly relevant to the world today." -
       Christine Wells, author of Sisters of the Resistance
