It was not obvious from the cover or synopsis that this was a Christian historical fiction. I don't have any issue with that genre but I did not like that the two main characters escape the Nazis because of Jesus's love and their Christian faith. I also found it disturbing that the reason they were being hunted was because the main character, a reporter, received a letter from her mother informing her that three sets of her grandparents were Jews who had converted to Christianity. Of course, her letter was read by the Nazis who then then considered her to be Jewish. They stole her passport and replaced it with German passport marking her as a Jew so she couldn't escape. In light of the real atrocities of the Holocaust, I just found the entire premise disgusting. Millions of people were tortured and killed during the Holocaust and these two managed to escape that fate because of their Christian faith.
