Book excerpt: Dresden, Germany was nicknamed the Florence on the Elbe River because of its beautiful Baroque buildings and cultural history. On February 13, 1945 that history was changed when British and American bombers attacked an unprotected city and created a Firestorm during three waves of bombing in 24 hours. Blond haired, blue-eyed Frieda Jacobsmeyer, her Mama, and Nana sat in the basement of the apartment building during the first wave of terror. Across town, her Jewish friend, Walther Goldschmidt, his Mother, and Father used the bombing as an opportunity to escape Dresden and their upcoming deportation to a work camp. Who will survive the Dresden firebombing? Who will survive the Gestapo that looks for Jewish families that left Dresden during the bombings? While the sparks fly in Dresden, what sparks are ignited between Frieda and Walther in their flight and fight for survival?
