Christine is only fifteen, and she’s caught in the middle of a war-torn city. Huddled in the cold, dark cellar of their bombed-out apartment building, Christine and her family listen in fear as the battle rages over their heads. They must get out of the city–but where will they go and how will they escape? Christine is learning some hard lessons about life–and death–as she struggles to stay alive amidst the horrors of war.
