24 year old Erika Müller has worked at her family bakery in Freiburg for as long as she can remember. As war breaks out, she is thrust into a perilous world unlike anything she has ever known.
25 year old Wilhelm Bauer is sent away to the front to fight for the Fatherland while he is plagued by nightmares of his past back in Berlin.

Under the quiet stars they must decide what remains."

The Deserter
Germany, April 1945. The Red Army has reached Berlin, hellbent on burying the Third Reich once and for all. 13-year-old Werner Otto Hoelscher, a young, blindly patriotic member of HJ-Bann 37, is perhaps a bit too eager to taste front-line combat for the first time, and to uphold his reputation in his troop, and to honour the memory of his late stepbrother--but this patriotism and zeal is put to the ultimate test after he is sent by his commanding officer on a suicide mission. As the battle takes an increasingly bloody turn, divisions among his closest friends deepen, and Werner must soon make a choice between the lives of his most cherished friends and loyalty to the ideological figureheads that had once nurtured and indoctrinated him, who now demands all to shed their last drops of blood in the final chapter of the world's deadliest and most destructive conflict. This is my first major project, and my biggest so far; I spent the last five years working on this. I'm anxious to bring this to Wattpad on its trial run. I hope you appreciate it!

Schatzi
Eli Ackermann has always lived a very normal and boring life despite the fact he's always stood out, different for all the wrong reasons. Jewish, mentally ill and a bit too close with his friend Peter Printz for society's comfort, he's been an outcast since Hitler came to power in the 30s. As the years pass and the political situation in Germany worsens, Eli and Peter grow more involved in underground resistance groups to the Nazis where people like them are not outcasts anymore, but are welcomed with open arms. But war looms on the horizon and more and more of their friends are disappearing and never returning. A new struggle lies around every corner.
