Revell and Netgalley have provided me with a copy of The Warsaw Sisters for review:

An august morning in 1939, sisters Antonina and Helena Dbrowska send their father off to defend Poland from German invasion. Within 24 hours, the first bombs fall on Warsaw, decimating their beloved city and shattering their childhood world.

After Antonina’s beloved Marek is forced behind ghetto walls, along with the rest of Warsaw’s Jewish population, Antonina becomes a key figure in a daring network of women risking their lives to shelter Jewish children. Helena finds herself drawn into the ranks of Poland’s secret army, fighting to free her homeland from occupation. The secrets they must keep threaten to tear them apart – and the cost of resistance is greater than either could have anticipated.

The Warsaw Sisters bring to the light the often forgotten history of Poland during WWII and is inspired by true stories of ordinary citizens who defended freedom and humanity in the darkness of wartime. It is an elegant portrait of courage, sacrifice, and the power of ties that bind us together.

I give The Warsaw Sisters five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
