January 1945.
Western Poland.

Three very different people are at the start of their individual, life-changing journeys. 

Anja Köhler, the daughter of a high-ranking Nazi official and proud German citizen, is slightly apprehensive about moving to Finland with her family. Blind to the true situation of a now-crumbling Germany, she doesn't quite understand the reasons behind why they're leaving in the first place. 

Leib Abramovich, an unofficially-declared Jewish orphan living under the alias Adolf Eilert, nervously counts the seconds between now and the long road to freedom in neutral Sweden. Traveling alone by train, he is full of worry as to what his fate may be if his fellow passengers find out who he truly is. 

Józef Drzyzga, the revenge-driven son of a once-prestigious Polish politician, tentatively works to destroy Germany's lifeline of supplies in hopes of winning his country back once and for all. He's been tightly held under Germany's grasp for long enough, and without his sacrifice, he knows that the chances of seeing his family again are very slim.

The Cuckoo's Song by RebeccaBala

'How could a God that inspired something as beautiful as this song also inspire people to rob her of the only person she had left? It made no sense to her. No higher power did. The comfort of an ultimate divine being had been ripped from her long ago, and the past few years had only confirmed that even if there was a God, she would hate him anyway. Yet music had always lifted her in this way, and it was difficult not to feel its power now. Tears welled in her eyes as she thought back to the last time she had heard anything like it. It had been Christmas eve; the night she had made herself a silent promise to reunite with her best friend and the man she loved. It was hopeless now. Anna turned and leant against the cold wall, sliding to a crumpled heap on the ground. Pulling her knees to her chest, she let the tears come. She felt so desperately alone. Her dream of Karl had been right. All she had ahead of her was a lonely future. Who could she turn to now?' The third and final instalment in the Cuckoo series. #1 concentrationcamp Trigger warning for graphic violence, graphic sexual content, mature themes and traumatic stress.

Of The Dark by GoodMorningOldSport

She was a kind, everyday girl imprisoned under the tyranny of the Nazi regime. He was the self-righteous son of one of the most powerful men in the Third Reich. What kind of war will break out when these two worlds collide? - Suppression and subservience are being forcibly integrated into the life of Hana Amsel; a selfless and arguably naïve girl who has somehow found herself victim to the tyrannous and despotic rule of the Nazi Party homed in Germany. Though she insists that nothing could be worse than losing her home, freedom, and ability to proudly call herself 'German', her patience and implausible kindness are put to the test when she is forced to work for the man who spent a night violating her virtue. - Trigger Warning: Some scenes may be triggering for certain audiences with mentions of murder, suicide, rape etc.

Being apart of the Cichociemni came next, Elite Polish Paratroopers, and it was their ticket home.

Book Of Ruth by Andreth88

"Bitterness is unbecoming of a woman, but I cherish mine like the memory of first love. I see nothing in Leon Wagner, but an automaton. He is a machine of the Third Reich.

Though they are not visible, Ruth Tucker's wounds run deep. Having worked as a nurse for the American Red Cross since the invasion of Normandy, Ruth's hatred for her country's former enemy runs deep. While stationed in Zell am See, Austria, she is assigned to nurse in a German POW camp. She meets a young Wehrmacht soldier, Leon Wagner, who speaks English and strives to spark a friendship with her. But Ruth's bitterness is almost too strong. All she sees in Leon is a heartless machine. Slowly, through a shared love of books and their families, she begins to recognize his humanity and starts to feel her own stir in her heart, something she thought long deadened by the months of violence.
