In post-World War II Germany, tensions mount in Berlin, the former capital city now in Soviet-controlled territory but still governed in part by the western allies, creating an isolated enclave in a hostile land. Robert Elmer's three-book generational series for kids unfolds against the backdrop of Cold War Berlin--gripping adventures in which three young teens, connected by family, faith, and friendship, struggle to hold on to life and each other, their lives brutally separated by the Berlin Wall.It is 1948, and teenage cousins Erich and Katrina are learning that survival in war-devastated Berlin is a challenge, which becomes even harder when the Soviets blockade West Berlin and the city begins to starve. But the Americans have food, and Erich is determined to get at it, even if it means taking a chance like sneaking onto a U.S. cargo plane.
