Saving Amelie

2015 Carol award finalist!
Increasingly wary of her fatherâ€™s genetic research, Rachel Kramer has determined that this trip with him to Germanyâ€”in the summer of 1939â€”will be her last. But a cryptic letter from her estranged friend, begging Rachel for help, changes everything. Married to SS officer Gerhardt Schlick, Kristine sees the dark tides turning and fears her husband views their daughter, Amelie, deaf since birth, as a blight on his Aryan bloodline.

Once courted by Schlick, Rachel knows heâ€™s as dangerous as the swastikas that hang like ebony spiders from every government building in Berlin. She fears her fatherâ€™s files may hold answers about Hitlerâ€™s plans for others, like Amelie, whom the regime deems â€œunworthy of life.â€ She risks searching his classified documents only to uncover shocking secrets about her own history and a family sheâ€™s never known.

Now hunted by the SS, Rachel turns to Jason Youngâ€”a driven, disarming American journalist and unlikely allyâ€”who connects her to the resistance and to controversial theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Forced into hiding, Rachelâ€™s every ideal is challenged as she and Jason walk a knifeâ€™s edge, risking their livesâ€”and asking others to do the sameâ€”for those they barely know but come to love.
