'I loved it. It broke me! Beautiful, heartbreaking and hopeful' Liz Fenwick
Occupied Norway, 1944. While the war rages on, Anni is surviving as best she can, contributing to the resistance whenever possible and standing firm without her sailor husband Lars, who she hasn't heard from in three years. Her daughter Ingrid is the bright spot in her life and Anni is determined to keep her safe and happy. However, when a German official is billeted at their house, the situation for them both becomes far more dangerous, and Anni faces an impossible choice.
London, 1952. In the years since she moved to live with her father, young Ingrid has been trying to make sense of the disappearance of her mother just as peace in Norway was declared. She desperately holds on to the fact that Anni promised she would always come back for her and, undaunted, Ingrid sets out to discover what happened to her mother all those years ago.
Anna Normann is the pseudonym of authors Anan Singh and Natalie Normann. Anan was born in India and had his first short story published at fourteen. Natalie grew up on the west coast of Norway and has always been fascinated with the country's period of occupation. She is a prolific historical romance writer in her native language and more recently published two contemporary Norwegian-set romances in English. The Silent Resistance is their first collaboration in English.
