Read this last night. I thought it was wonderful, but I do love WWII stories. This came out in 2006 and the author wrote that she was inspired after reading Defiance, and the girls do stay in a forest camp with similar characters. This is a short novel. I picked it up because I saw it will be reissued and I was happy my library already owns many copies. Recommended for historical fiction readers who like a survival element.
