Inhaltsangabe

They believed they had reached safety. Instead, they stepped into history's shadow.

November 1940. After a three-month journey fleeing Nazi-occupied Europe, Lilly and 1,800 Jewish refugees arrive in Haifa Bay aboard the SS Atlantic. For Lilly, widowed and haunted by loss, it means reuniting with her brother who has built a new life on a kibbutz. For her cousin Hannah, it means rejoining the fiancé who travelled on another ship. Safety and a new life in the Promised Land are finally within reach.

But hours pass with no explanation. Instead of permission to disembark, the British announce the refugees will be transferred to the SS Patria for temporary quarantine. Hannah is eager to go, certain her fiancé is already
aboard. Lilly suspects something is wrong. Is it really quarantine – or is this deception?

And then disaster strikes.

In the chaos that follows, Lilly must hold onto hope when promises are broken. Even as all seems lost, she discovers that the bonds of friendship and love may offer the only path forward.

Based on a little-known true story, Another Shore, the continuation of Wave After Wave, illuminates a forgotten chapter of World War II history: a story of love, betrayal, and resilience in the face of displacement.

"A beautifully written and deeply moving novel. Sarah Ansbacher has an extraordinary gift for storytelling." —Naama Levy Eylam, author of The Garden Keeper of Auschwitz

"A literary triumph full of gorgeous detail... This historical novel pits romance, friendship and a desire for a good life with the challenges of humanity in wartime." —Lynne Golodner, author of Cave of Secrets

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Sarah Ansbacher is the author of eight books, with her first published when she was just eighteen. Born in London, her storytelling draws from a deep interest in Jewish history, heritage, and culture, exploring themes of identity, resilience, and belonging. Her latest work is a historical fiction trilogy following Jewish refugees who fled Nazi Europe via the Danube River in 1940 - a largely forgotten chapter of WWII history. Another Shore and Wave After Wave bring these true stories to life through extensive archival research and conversations with those who experienced these events as children, or are the children of survivors. Sarah's other works include Ayuni and Passage From Aden: Stories From A Little Museum In Tel Aviv, based on her time working at the Aden Jewish Heritage Museum in Tel Aviv. Sarah enjoys connecting with book clubs and readers.
