The Lost Daughter (The Love and War Series)

The girls sent to the East Wing never returned the same. No one ever spoke of what happened there.

England, 2001. Elizabeth is facing an empty nest, a failed marriage, and a mother whose fading memory is taking her secrets to the grave.

Then she discovers a Nazi certificate among her mother's belongings.

Her search for the truth leads her to Germany, and to a past no one wants to talk about.

Germany, 1943. Seventeen-year-old Hannah Schiffer is desperate to survive the war. After defending a Polish worker, she is sent to a remote hotel in the German countryside.

The nurses are kind. The rooms are luxurious. The food is plentiful.

But the East Wing is locked.

And Hannah soon discovers why.

As the Reich closes in around her, Hannah faces an impossible choice whose consequences will reach across generations, leaving Elizabeth to uncover a family secret that will change everything she believed about her past.

The Lost Daughter is an emotional dual-timeline story of family secrets, love and loss, set between England in 2001 and wartime Germany.
