Austria

Austria, 1937. Fourteen-year-old Robert Leitner has grown up helping his father smuggle goods across the mountain borders of Liechtenstein and Switzerland. But as Nazi influence spreads, the family’s dangerous trade becomes a lifeline for those fleeing persecution. Every journey through the Alps carries greater risks, and Robert must discover whether courage is measured by age – or by the willingness to risk everything for others. A gripping historical novel inspired by one of the Second World War’s least-known frontiers.
