But when war comes  between them, the two discover that even the deepest bonds have their  limits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaving been cruelly separated as children, Lotte and Anna are at  last reunited. Neither lost hope to see each other again. However, with  Europe on the verge of war, much has changed between them. While  Lotte has enjoyed a privileged upbringing in liberal Holland, Anna has  endured a life of poverty in a Germany under the spell of Hitler. With  Lotte now engaged to a Jewish musician, and Anna brainwashed by  Third Reich ideas, cracks in their relationship soon appear. With the war on, the twins decide to part again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBack in Germany,  Anna marries Martin, an Austrian soldier, who hates the war but joins  the SS for the sake of his wife only to be killed a few days later. Anna is  devastated and longs for her sister. At the same time, Lotte's own life is  in danger. The Nazis have invaded Holland and her lover has been  taken to Auschwitz. Knowing she will never see him again, all she can  do is keep his family safe from Hitler's troops. Now an old woman, Lotte remembers the pain as, before her, stands  the sisters she disowned all those years ago. Can these two lives ever be  reconciled? The twins now face their final test . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTranslated from the Dutch by Ruth Levitt\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Loo, Tessa","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Adult Fiction)","offer_id":44027403927776,"sku":"","price":10.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0330\/3125\/8248\/files\/1057295.jpg?v=1685035639","url":"https:\/\/agricola-street-books.myshopify.com\/products\/the-twinsbooks","provider":"Agricola Street Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
