Book excerpt: Can the dream of freedom overcome fear and oppression? Friendships, marriages and loyalties are tested to the limit in this novel which spans Prague's tumultuous twentieth century . In the summer of 1914 young love beckons and the future seems bright for three friends as they reach adulthood, but dark clouds are gathering and momentous events throw into stark relief the differences between them that had never mattered before. From WW1 and the heady days of liberty which follow, to Nazi occupation and afterwards Communist dictatorship, life threatening risks must be taken and families are torn apart by the choices they make. Conflict and hardship will bring out both the good and the bad, and in unexpected ways. A moving story set in one of the world's most enchanting and fascinating cities.
