Kragujevac 1941 : Amid the encroaching shadows of World War II, in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, Zora Brković emerges as a beacon of unwavering resilience and hope. An inimitable healer to her Serbian people, and a devoted mother of seven, she grapples with an unfulfilled marriage to her lackluster husband, Peda, who naively dismisses the imminent threat of Hitler's forces. But when he stubbornly refuses to send their two fighting-aged sons to safety in America, it sets them on a terrifying course. As their nation teeters on the brink of war, Zora's determination to save her children propels her on a treacherous journey filled with danger and uncertainty.
In this tension-filled debut novel, Zora and her sisters find themselves in a perilous situation, guarding dangerous secrets that, if revealed, will result in certain deaths. These secrets endanger not only their lives, but also those around them. Amid the Third Reich's Occupation, Yugoslavia finds itself embroiled in its own complex, bloody civil war. In the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, Zora and her sister, Sava become part of the Royalist Resistance. They stand as a formidable force of women determined to fight for their family's survival and the future of their homeland.
Yet, Zora's worst fears are met when more Wehrmacht troops enter Kragujevac. And to their utter shock and dismay, bombs are dropped on their revered Monastery Žiča, while the town of Kraljevo is set ablaze.
This narrative is a testament to the indomitable strength of the human spirit. An exquisitely tender tale inspired by real-life events, this novel will linger long after the final page, and will beg to ask the toughest question— how have we never heard of this before?
