Last Days In Berlin

Publishing date:4/11/2021

Synopsis:

A thrilling story of love and war, of struggle and survival, where love and hope will triumph over hatred and rage.

When Yuri Santacruz attended Adolf ’s Hitler appointment as chancellor he could hardly imagine how much his life in Berlin was about to change. He had just landed there a few months before the event, after a hectic and painful flee from Saint Petersburg along with part of his family, choked by a revolution that had left them with nothing. The Revolution also severed Yuri’s bond with her mother and his little brother: the Russian authorities would impede them to leave the country. Yuri would show his understanding of what justice is, while trying to help and defend a young Communist from the abuse of Hitler’s storm troopers. On that same day, he will also meet the love of his life, Claudia, a young member of the Nazi party that has just married an SS commander. After this event, his comfortable life will take an unexpected turn. What had been his main priority until that point; that is, to find his mum and little brother, will be replaced by a more urgent one in such a tumultuous period: his own survival.

In Last Days in Berlin there will be victims and executioners, accomplices and brave opponents, but the protagonist, who will have to escape from Nazi and Stalinist persecution, will never abandon his great hope: to reunite with the family he left in Russia.

Reviews

“A gripping story of war, love and the struggle for survival.” La Vanguardia

“Sánchez-Garnica novel travels to two major events in recent history, through their most intimate aspects. The book tackles both the motives behind the rise of Nazism, and life during Stalinism, a period where ‘it was easier to believe than to know’.” La Razón

“A turbulent and passionate journey through a particularly tumultuous historical period.” ABC
