Book Review: The Melody of the Soul By Liz Tolsma --- on tour with Litfuse

The Melody of the Soul (Gilead Publishing, January 2018)

Anna has one chance for survival—and it lies in the hands of her mortal enemy.

It’s 1943 and Anna Zadok, a Jewish Christian living in Prague, has lost nearly everything. Most of her family has been deported, and the Nazi occupation ended her career as a concert violinist. Now Anna is left to care for her grandmother, and she’ll do anything to keep her safe—a job that gets much harder when Nazi officer Horst Engel is quartered in the flat below them.

Though musical instruments have been declared illegal, Anna defiantly continues to play the violin. But Horst, dissatisfied with German ideology, enjoys her soothing music. When Anna and her grandmother face deportation, Horst risks everything to protect them.

Anna finds herself falling in love with the handsome officer and his brave heart. But what he reveals might stop the music forever.

My Thoughts: 

What a great story. Well written characters, great story line - great setting. Set during WW2 - which has been a time period I do not read enough. Grips the heart. Ms Tolsma is a master crafter and this story brings you on an adventure.
