COURAGE - SURVIVAL - LOVE

    Only the Brave is a heart-wrenching story of courage and hope, from the billion-copy bestseller Danielle Steel.

    In 1930s Berlin, dark days dawn under Hitler's Third Reich.  For nineteen-year-old Sophia Alexandria, life will never be the same.  The daughter of a respected doctor, Sophia has always believed that her destiny is to look after others - and, as the persecution of Jewish families begins, she joins a group of dissidents who are committed to helping them to safety. 

    As war is declared, Sophia answers her religious calling and enters a convent, where she continues to fight bravely against the Nazi regime.  That is until the fateful day she is arrested and taken to Ravensbruck concentration camp, where her only hope of surviving is to escape and attempt the dangerous journey to the border. 

    Her situation is further complicated when she meets a US airman, who has been shot down nearby.  She nurses him back to health and they grow close, but she is still resolute that her destiny is with the Church. 

    As Sophia looks for a sign as to which path to follow, will she have the strength to question what she has committed her whole life to? 

    PURE STEEL.    PURE HEART.
