Bookroo's summary
In Nazi-occupied Greece, Princess Alice faces a life-altering decision when Tilde Cohen and her mother seek refuge at her doorstep. Born deaf, Alice understands discrimination and must choose whether to risk her life to protect them. As the war rages, will her compassion prevail against the looming threat? This gripping tale, based on true events, explores courage and humanity in the darkest times.
From the publisher
Princess Alice of Greece is known for her kindness. Born deaf, she knows what it is like to be discriminated against. In 1943 the Second World War is raging, and the Nazis have taken control of Greece. All Jews in the country are in danger, including young Tilde Cohen and her mother, Rachel. On the run, they are in search of a safe place to hide from the Nazis. When they arrive unannounced on Princess Alice’s doorstep, begging her to shelter them, the princess’s kindness is put to the test.
