The Kommandant's Girl

In her powerful debut, New York Times bestselling author Pam Jenoff tells the story of nineteen-year-old Emma Bau, who, after only three weeks of marriage, finds herself trapped in a Jewish ghetto as Nazi tanks invade Poland. Smuggled to safety by the resistance, Emma assumes a new identity as Anna Lipowski, living with her husband’s aunt in Krakow. Soon, she is drawn into a dangerous liaison with a high-ranking Nazi official, compelled to navigate a web of deception to aid her husband and the resistance, all while risking her safety and the lives of those she loves.
