Description
"Sixteen-year-old Noa has been cast out in disgrace after becoming pregnant by a Nazi soldier and being forced to give up her baby. She lives above a small rail station, which she cleans in order to earn her keep... When Noa discovers a boxcar containing dozens of Jewish infants bound for a concentration camp, she is reminded of the child that was taken from her. And in a moment that will change the course of her life, she snatches one of the babies and flees into the snowy night. Noa finds refuge with a German circus, but she must learn the flying trapeze act so she can blend in undetected, spurning the resentment of the lead aerialist, Astrid. At first rivals, Noa and Astrid soon forge a powerful bond. But as the facade that protects them proves increasingly tenuous, Noa and Astrid must decide whether their friendship is enough to save one another--or if the secrets that burn between them will destroy everything" -- Book jacket.
Description
"Noa, de dieciséis años, ha sido expulsada en desgracia después de quedar embarazada de un soldado nazi y verse forzada a renunciar a su bebé. Vive en los altos de una pequeña estación del ferrocarril, que limpia para ganarse su estancia allí. Cuando Noa descubre un furgón en el cual hay docenas de bebés judíos que son llevados a un campo de concentración, recuerda al hijo que le fue arrebatado. Y en un instante que cambiará el curso de su vida, se roba uno de los bebés y huye en medio de la noche en medio de la nieve. La joven encuentra refugio en un circo alemán, pero necesita aprender el trapecio ondulante para poderse mezclar con los demás sin que la descubran, sin hacer caso del resentimiento de Astrid, la principal trapecista. Rivales al principio, Noa y Astrid crean muy pronto un poderoso lazo entre ellas. Pero al ver que la fachada que las protege se vuelve cada vez más tenue, Noa y Astrid deben decidir si su amistad es suficiente para salvarse mutuamente, o si los secretos que arden entre ellas lo van a destruir todo" -- Page [4] of cover.
