To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Baker's Daughter — Copenhagen, October 1943. The Germans came for the Jews on the night of Rosh Hashanah. By the time the trucks reached Gammelholm, most of the apartments stood already empty — the Danes had been warned. At the corner of Nyhavn and Lille Strandstræde, Petersen's Bakery still glows with the day's last heat. Fourteen-year-old Johanne Petersen rolls dough while her father counts the night's loaves. A soft knock comes at the back door.
