DELIVERING HOPE IN THE MIDST OF HYPOCRISY, THIS TENSE AND DEEPLY MOVING STORY REVEALS A PART OF WORLD WAR II FEW HAVE DISCOVERED.

It’s 1943 in Huntsville, Texas. Stephan, a German army conscript, is imprisoned in one of the first POW camps hastily built in America. While the hostile Texas community opposes the enemy on American soil, Stephan’s greatest threat lurks inside the camp, where Nazis demand his loyalty to a cause he deeply despises.

Struggling to survive, Stephan is assigned to a work detail on a nearby cotton farm run by the Bauer family -- descendants of German immigrants. Left shorthanded by the absence of her two brothers serving overseas, Rose Bauer grudgingly accepts the presence of POW labor on her family’s farm.

Under the wise and watchful eye of Oma, her family’s matriarch, Rose tries to navigate uncharted waters -- until a family heirloom from Stephan’s past changes everything. Until her intensifying interest in Stephan’s cause blurs the line between sworn enemies. Until together they risk the unthinkable.
