About the book: 2019 / Sisters Steffi and Nellie have to flee to Sweden to escape persecution of Jews in their native Austria.

It seems that there is only sea and stones here. There is no war here, no persecution of Jews, but there are people who support fascism...

The first volume includes the books “Island in the Sea” and “White Lily Pond».
