Prisoner of Night and
fog is teen historical fiction novel set before the second world in Germany.
Gretchen Muller is basically the adoptive niece of Hitler. Gretchen basically
only has two friends Hitler’s actual niece and Eva Braun. Till she meets Daniel Cohen a Jewish reporter
who tells her that there is more to her father’s death than what she was lead
to believe.
I have always loved
teen historical fiction or historical fiction in general. But I especially love WWII fiction, especially
those with love stories. I guess it is because
I got to hear a real life WWII love story growing up, and every sense then I’ve
been hooked. Prisoner of night and Fog was more than just a love story. It used
fiction to bring to life a very tragic time in the world’s history. In way that was right for teen readers as well
as being truthful.
There are some scenes
in the novel that are not for readers younger than the teen years, but adults
can read this book and enjoy it. I know
I did.
