The Nazi threat disturbs a Jewish family in North East France. Their talented daughter, Ruth, leaves for Krakow to teach music. She is French, fascinating and foreign. Is she Jewish or Christian? A passionate relationship must end, and her lover, now a fighter pilot, flies in defence of Poland. Ruth is trapped in Krakow and survives while she can in the subjugated city. Some of her friends escape to France and England, while others join the resistance in Poland. Ruth finds consolation, but an embittered Jew-hater seeks her out.This novel celebrates love, comradeship and common humanity. Music is a common language. Even tragedy may be uplifting and the example of the fallen will inspire those who fight on. Characters recognisable today face the challenge of World War 2. Their response is a life-affirming story for humanity.
