Catherine Hokin is the author of several novels inspired by World War Two, including the Hanni Winter series. She writes books set primarily in Berlin, which is her favourite city, a never-ending source of inspiration and also, very conveniently, where her son lives. Her novels cover the period from 1930 up to the fall of the Berlin Wall and deal with the long shadows left by war.
Her passion for history began as a child, flourished doing her history degree course at Manchester University and survived a varied career covering marketing, teaching and politics. She is from the North of England but now lives very happily in Glasgow with her American husband. She loves to travel and, if she’s not at her desk, she can usually be found in the cinema.

Blood surges through Annie’s veins as she stares into the cold eyes of the Nazi who hurt her mother. She knows she must finally make it right…
Germany, 1946. Annie takes a deep breath, trying to stop her hands shaking as she takes notes at the Nuremberg Trials. She isn’t just here to expose the horrors the Nazis committed, she also has a personal stake. And as soon as she lays eyes on Margarete, the Nazi who destroyed her family, a flame burns bright in her to deliver justice for her mother too.
Only Annie knows how dangerous Margarete truly is. Not only was she one of the last people inside Hitler’s bunker, she left there with a mission to continue his work. A mission that almost led to the murder of Annie’s mother. Now Annie must make a choice. Revealing Margarete’s true identity will also mean exposing her father’s secret relationship with the German woman.
In telling the world the truth, can Annie show the world who Margarete really is? Or will speaking out betray her father and destroy her family forever?
An achingly emotional page-turner about risking everything to protect those you love. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Roberta Kagan and Ellie Midwood.
