WOW!! Fabulous read!!

Why wouldn't Clara's mother ever tell her who her father was?

Now that her mother Bettina has passed and she has a daughter of her own, Clara is on a search to find out on her own.

We follow Bettina and Max, artists, during the war where they are separated when Max gets arrested and makes porcelain pieces that represent Germany and creates them to save his life and while Bettina does everything she can to find and save Max. Will they find each other?

We then move to 1993 as Clara deals with her mother's death and her search for answers. Will she find what she is looking for?

A beautiful, but heartbreaking debut that introduces us to the decorative Allach Porcelain telling how they were made and where they were made. Very interesting.

Fascinating information about the factory and the porcelain. Marvelous research.

Historical fiction fans will devour this book.

Don't miss it...you will be with Max as he endures his time in Dachau, as Bettina waits for him, and as you hope for the best. 5/5

Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

The story is very interesting as I learned a lot about how the Germans used art as influence during the war. It was also a very good love story. I found the book a little slow to get started but after a while I was hooked!
