- Summary
- Norway, 1942: She has lost everything to the Nazis. But now she fights back...

One night, when he braves a storm to complete an ill-fated mission, Rumi's fiancé is lost to the dangerous waters. Broken-hearted, she withdraws from the clandestine group, vowing never to let her loved ones put themselves in the line of fire again.
