    About this audiobook

    A tale of love, betrayal, and courage in wartime Austria of five women who lived, loved, and lost under the ever-watchful eye of the Third Reich.

    To fourth-generation Australian Elise, World War Two felt surreal, like the vague memory of an old black-and-white movie. Fuzzy facts and grainy images indistinguishable from those of childhood bad dreams. But sitting at the bedside of her critically ill mother-in-law, she was about to learn the harsh reality of what had happened during those dark times from the lips of someone born in one of the darkest of dark places....

    Did these horrors really happen a mere generation ago?

    Once you choose HOPE anything is possible....Despite living within cooee of the Great Barrier Reef, idyllic tropical islands, and a well-stocked ocean pantry, author Alicia Hope is a self-confessed landlubber and disliker of seafood (I know - what the heck, right?). She’s also a keen horse rider, bass player, and bird watcher, and shares her gumtree-dotted acreage home with author husband, Frank H Jordan, feathered larrikin, cockatiel Kewbie Kewberton, and a whole bunch of wild birds, roos, goannas, and pretty-face wallabies. Her feel-good stories showcase Alicia’s love of the land and the natural world, and this is especially true of her LONG ROAD series.Anyone who has travelled Australia by road knows to prepare for looong trips, with a high probability of obstacles and roadblocks being encountered along the way. So it’s no surprise the heroines in Alicia’s stories discover that the road to happiness can also be long, potholed, and downright challenging. But these gutsy Aussie gals are up for whatever challenges come their way!For the latest on her books and writing life visit Alicia online at aliciahopeauthor.blogspot.com.au, and collect an exclusive gift when you sign up for her oh-so newsy newsletter. :-)
