World War II threatens to tear apart everything they’ve built together. 1937, Germany. Lily, a talented aspiring seamstress, falls head over heels in love with Heinrich, a charming major in Hitler’s Wehrmacht. Their love affair blossoms into a beautiful romance, and despite the growing fear of impending war, Lily dreams of the wonderful future they will have together. But Heinrich has a secret – one that, if revealed, would put his life in grave danger. And now Lily’s, too. As darkness takes over and secrets become harder to keep, the lovers are forced apart, lost to each other in a war-torn world. Devastated and alone, Lily is left to pick up the pieces of her life… the needle and thread in her hands the only comfort for her broken heart. Inspired in part by true events, The German Dressmaker is the unforgettable, unputdownable, heart-wrenching story of a romance cut short by tragedy, two star-crossed lovers, and a war determined to keep them apart.
