Ngā marau: Genre/Form: Summary: "1946, Berlin. War correspondent Kate Mancini is in Germany, reporting on the aftermath of the devastating war. For her readers back home in New York, she tells the stories of innocent families, trying to rebuild the wreckage of their lives now the soldiers have left at last. But in the Russian-held sector of Berlin on an icy winter's day, Kate breaks all the rules, rescuing Mia Stein, a silent orphan who she fears will otherwise perish. Together with her fellow journalist, handsome Rick Shearer, Kate manages to find a safe house for Mia before she returns to America and vows to keep in touch. Back home, the reality of post-war life for women is stark. Whilst Rick walks into his dream job, no newspaper will hire a woman. The editors laugh her out of their offices, telling her to get married and raise a family. Rick does all he can to support her, as she takes her first steps towards the new medium of television news, and their friendship deepens into something more. Then tragedy strikes: Rick is falsely named as a communist sympathizer. He is arrested, blacklisted and faces prison. Kate knows she must do all she can to free the man she loves. But that means returning to Germany, to seek out the little orphan girl who is her only chance at salvation. Kate and Rick saved Mia--will she help them both now? And even if Kate succeeds, freedom might never be hers when she returns home"--Amazon.
