Publisher Description

AS the Second World War progresses, twins Astra and Hugo are forced to leave their home in Latvia. With their family, they take to the roads as refugees, but then Hugo is injured and separated from the others. Brother and sister are torn apart.

 

In the chaos and confusion of war, the twins sometimes despair of seeing one another again. But in their constant search for each other, neither gives up hope. . .

 

'A story of survival and hope from a previously dark corner of the history of war.' -  Stephanie Nettell, The Guardian.
