      Book Overview

      Like other girls, Jutta Salzberg enjoyed playing with friends, going to school, and visiting relatives. In Germany in 1938, these everyday activities were dangerous for Jews. Jutta and her family tried to lead normal lives, but soon they knew they had to escape-if they could before it was too late. Throughout 1938, Jutta had her friends and relatives fill her poesiealbum-her autograph book-with inscriptions. Her daughter, Debbie Levy, used these entries as a springboard for telling the story of the Salzberg family's last year in Germany. It was a year of change and chance, confusion and cruelty. It was a year of goodbyes.

Another change is that a significant portion of the novel actually takes place inside the CIA's Langley HQ, instead of being entirely focused on a field operation. A respected journalist is invited to a Soviet propaganda conference...

      Great read!

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      This book is the first that I've ever read by Helen MacInnes, and I was very impressed! I got so into the book that I missed a date and stayed up reading until the wee hours of the morning to finish the book. There is a lot of action, from Eastern Europe to the United States and Italy.
