1943
In the throes of WWII, captured German soldier, Johannes Gertner, is sent to Camp 23 — a prisoner of war camp in the wilds of Canada’s boreal forest. Far from Rommel’s Afrika Korps , Johannes forms an unlikely friendship with a black bear, and Alfred — an anti-Nazi philosopher. But when tragedy strikes camp, Johannes is relocated to a Canadian farm.
Under the watchful eye of Violet Earle — the farmer’s 16-year-old daughter — Johannes escapes the nightmares of WWII and discovers a world of belonging. But, as the war rages on, he faces an unfathomable dilemma that puts everything at risk.
2022
Mourning her beloved grandmother, Elizabeth Sullivan inherits her family’s dilapidated cottage. Finding solace in the neighbour’s son, the two uncover a long-held family secret that shatters the budding romance. Grief-stricken, Elizabeth sets off to find the truth, but will the truth tarnish her family's name or mend all that is broken?
A story from a new-world vantage, The Prisoner's Daughter offers a glimpse of life at POW Camp 23 and those living an ocean away from the front lines — a point of view rarely told in WWII fiction
