After her parents are arrested by the Nazis on Kristallnacht, twelve-year-old Gilde Margolis is sent away from her home, her sister Alina, and everyone she knows and loves. Alone and afraid, Gilde boards a train on the Kindertransport bound for London, where she will stay with strangers.
Over the next seven years, as Gilde comes of age in a foreign land, she learns about love, friendship, heartache, and the pain of betrayal. The Nazis' rise to power casts a dark shadow over Europe, and London is thrust into a brutal war against Hitler. Severe rationing grips the British, while air raids and bombings all but destroy the city.
Against all odds, and with no knowledge of her family's fate in Germany, Gilde nurtures a tiny flicker of hope deep in her heart that someday, she will be reunited with her loved ones. As she navigates the hardships of war and the complexities of growing up, Gilde's journey is a testament to resilience, courage, and the enduring power of hope.
