    “Book Descriptions: A mesmerising tale of three women who must overcome the past and beat the odds to find hope for the future.

    German immigrant, Ilse Klein, lives sedately in Central Otago with her mother, but their peaceful summer is fractured when Ilse, during her nightly swim in the river, discovers one of her young students on the riverbank about to give birth. She must decide whether to shelter the girl and endanger herself and her mother, or to tread the route of safety in the face of corruption and brutality she had thought left far behind in the years of her childhood.

    A fast-paced and beautifully told story of three women and the real meaning of courage.”
