Book
Beneath a starless sky : a novel of WWII / Tessa Harris.
Munich 1930: Smoke filled the air. Lilli Sternberg's quickening heart sounded an alarm as she rounded the street corner. Lifting her gaze to the rooftops, a roaring blaze of thick flames engulfed the side of the building and joined the stars to fill the black sky. Her father's shop was no more. Lilli Sternberg longs to be a ballet dancer. But outside the sanctuary of the theatre, Munich is no longer a place for dreams. The Nazi party are gaining power and the threats to Jewish families increasing. Even Lilli's family shop was torched because of their faith. When Lilli meets Captain Marco Zeiller during a chance encounter, her heart soars. He is the perfect gentleman and her love for him feels like a bright hope under a bleak sky. But battle lines are being drawn, and Marco has been spotted by the Reich as an officer with potential. A relationship with Lilli would compromise them both. Will Lilli survive the Nazi threats facing her family, and how much is she willing to risk for the man she loves?
