A free e-book in exchange for an honest review.

This was a quick book, but not an easy read in terms of the topics brought up. Sarah is struggling to survive as a blonde haired blue eyed Jewish girl in a Nazi Germany. As her mother and her flee from one town to the next to escape the Nazi parties her luck starts to slowly run out. Sarah's mother is killed and she is forced to survive on her own, with the help of another mysterious character. As the mysterious man spies on the German's she makes her way into his care and becomes one of the little "monsters" in order to get into the good graces of elite German families building bombs. I enjoyed the characters, the fast pace of the books. You are right there in the action. I did not overly care for the constant bad words, even if they were in German. I do not think the extent they are used was totally necessary? Maybe it was. The struggles feel real, the plot seemed plausible. Overall, an easy quick read that keeps you entertained and on the edge of your seat.
