When the Germans march into Denmark, Baron Henrik Ahlefeldt exchanges his nobility for anonymity, assuming a new identity so he can secretly row messages for the Danish Resistance across the waters to Sweden.
American physicist Dr. Else Jensen refuses to leave Copenhagen and abandon her research--her life's dream. While printing resistance newspapers, she hears stories of the movement's legendary Havmand--the merman--and wonders if the mysterious and silent shipyard worker living in the same boardinghouse has something to hide.
When the Occupation cracks down on the Danes, these two passionate people will discover if there is more power in speech . . . or in silence. Bestselling author of more than a dozen WWII novels, Sarah Sundin offers pens another story of ordinary people responding to extraordinary circumstances with faith, fortitude, and hope for a brighter future.
My Review:
The Sound of Light was another good World War II book by Sarah Sundin.
It did take me a little bit to get into the story but after a while things started making more sense and I was following along better, though at times I found it hard to stay engaged.
There were some mentions of torture towards the end that made me not enjoy it as much as I had been up until that point.
At the end we did get to briefly see some of the characters from Sarah Sundin’s last two books, so that was fun!
**Thank you Revell for the book in exchange for my honest review
