Description

In the shadow of pre-WWII Germany, 17-year-old Ilse finds herself alone, pregnant, and penniless-betrayed by her family and thrust into the arms of Lebensborn, the Nazis secretive program designed to propagate Aryan purity.
Yet, Ilse harbors a perilous secret within the walls of Lebensborn: her unborn child s father is Jewish. Surrounded by the very architects of the regime s sinister vision, she must rely on her cunning, her knowledge of herbs, and her indomitable spirit to hide the truth and keep her child safe.
As the Reich s scrutiny intensifies, Ilse s place within Lebensborn becomes a gilded cage, with each day edging her closer to exposure. Forced to navigate a labyrinth of lies and make unthinkable choices, her journey turns into more than a fight for survival-it becomes a quest for identity, redemption, and defiance that could alter the course of her life forever.
