They were loyal subjects of the Reich... until it came knocking on their door.
Berlin, 1942. As bombs fall over Europe during the darkest days of World War II, the Kerner family is torn apart by a shocking revelation that, if found out, could spell their doom.
Frantz Kerner and his three grown children have each found their own way of serving their Fatherland. But when Frantz reveals a long-hidden secret, the foundations of their world are shaken to the core as they are forced to confront their loyalty to the Nazi regime - and to each other.
Amid the chaos and heartbreak of war, the Kerners must grapple with their identities and the weight of their choices: Karl, the Luftwaffe pilot, struggles to maintain his blind officer's faith in his command. Elsa, the government official, desperately tries to protect her newly discovered family from the authorities; and Helmut, the Hitlerjugend infantryman, hides his secret from his brothers-in-arms until the Reich's plans leave him with no other choice...
With rich historical detail and emotional depth, The Berlin Family's Secret is a sweeping tale of familial bonds, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable hardship.
