Description
The book from USA Today bestselling anthology The Darkest Hour that hit #67 on the list.
A swing dancing American teenager is sent to live with his Nazi relative when his mother dies. He cares for a Jewish girl, but will he risk his life to save hers?
Charlie is an American sixteen-year-old from Long Island, who loves to dance, just like his mother.
His life is tragically altered when his mother is murdered. He is sent away by his greedy aunt with only the clothes on his back. He journeys to live with Erich Beck, a high-ranking and sadistic Nazi leader in Regensburg, Germany in 1940.
He becomes interested in a part Jewish girl named Edith. Unfortunately, Erich is interested in her too. Erich tries to rid Charlie and Edith of their love of swing music. Swing dancing causes them grave consequences, but also offers a place to hide.
When Erich turns to violence, he must decide whether he will be brave and risk his life for Edith, or sit back and watch Erich's hateful wrath destroy them all.
"... The narrative of this tale is very engaging and I was utterly engrossed in this story of good vs. evil." -The Coffee Pot Book Club
