When she is asked to risk her life to safely "courier" Engel out of Germany, the fate of the world rests in her hands.

But in a time of traitors and uncertainty, whom can she trust along the way?This fast-paced, suspenseful novel takes readers along treacherous twists and turns during a fascinating--and deadly--time in history.
