The Girl from the Resistance
Available on Amazon: ebook, paperback and audiobook
When Nazis break down the front door of eighteen-year-old Trudi’s home and seize the Jewish couple hiding in her attic, she’s devastated, and is suddenly solely responsible for their two innocent children. The whispered rumours about the resistance are her only hope. Under the cover of night she races to beg Frans and his cousin Piet for their help.
When the girls are offered a place of safety, Trudi is relieved. But with soldiers on every corner of the cobbled streets, getting there will be extremely dangerous… Trudi must dress up in a German nurse’s uniform and convince anyone who asks that she is transporting two children to hospital.
Trudi will have to give up everything to protect Rosy and Louisa. She will have to lie to her friends and family, and learn to fire a weapon that could take someone’s life.
The only consolation is Piet’s dark eyes and handsome face as he stands beside her helping to plan her next steps.
But Trudi suspects someone close to her told the Nazis about the hiding place in the attic, and they’ll stop at nothing to make sure the girls do not escape…
What readers are saying about The Girl from the Resistance:
‘Wow, what a page-turner! This amazing story is filled with unexpected turns and twists just as it must have been for refugees and their helpers in the 1940’s. The book is well written and a fine contribution to historical fiction about Holland in WWII.
Carolyn, Goodreads
‘An incredible, heart-rending, page-turner of a novel, about the actions of the Dutch Resistance during WW2. This is the first book I’ve read by this author, but it will certainly not be my last!’
Stephanie Fitzgerald, Goodreads
‘An inspiring unputdownable WW2 historical novel. I can’t wait to read the next in the series.’
