Todo cambia cuando una clienta le hace un encargo inusitado: localizar a una chica judía que mantenía oculta y que ha desaparecido sin dejar rastro. Debe encontrarla antes que los nazis. Basada en una meticulosa documentación, esta novela de misterio ambientada en la Segunda Guerra Mundial es un relato conmovedor sobre justicia, prejuicios, amor, amistad y valentía.

English Translation

Girl in the Blue Coat

Amsterdam, 1943. Hanneke survives the German occupation by buying and selling black-market goods behind her parents' backs, a small rebellion that also numbs the grief of losing her boyfriend at the front. Then a customer asks the unthinkable: find a Jewish girl she had been hiding, who has vanished without a trace. Hanneke must locate her before the Nazis do. Meticulously researched and impossible to forget, this mystery set during World War II explores justice, prejudice, love, friendship, and courage in a time when every choice carries deadly weight.
