Inge's War by Svenja O'Donnell.
“Inge’s War is the mesmerizing account of a granddaughter’s search for a World War II family history hidden for sixty years. Svenja O’Donnell, award-winning journalist and daughter of a German mother and Irish father, vividly reconstructs the story of her grandmother’s life from the rise of the Nazis through the brutal postwar years, from falling in love with a man who was sent to the Eastern Front just after she became pregnant, to spearheading her family’s flight as the Red Army closed in, her young daughter in tow. Ultimately, O’Donnell uncovers a terrible secret hidden for more than six decades. In retracing her grandmother’s footsteps, she not only discovers the remarkable story of a woman caught in the gears of history, but also comes face to face with her family’s legacy of neutrality and inaction.”
