A young girl, kidnapped on the eve of World War II, changes the lives of a German archaeologist forced into the Nazi Party and–decades later–a researcher trying to overcome her own trauma. Wondering how both could be true, Ember helps Mrs. Kiehl regain her fractured childhood memories of World War II while at the same time confronting the heartache of her own secret past–and the person who wants to silence Ember forever. I wrote The Curator’s Daughter in 2019, a time-slip story about a female German archaeologist who was being sucked into the lies and deception of the Nazi party. Melanie:I’m currently writing a time-slip novel inspired by another true story, this one about a young Quaker woman who helped Jewish children escape over the French Pyrenees near the end of World War II.
