First came the Nazi invaders...now the Russians! Huddled in the cold, dark cellar of their bombed-out apartment building, Christine and her family listen in fear as the battle rages over their heads. They must get out of the city - but where, and how? "I am fifteen," Chris prays silently, "only fifteen...and I don't want to die!"

Prize-winning true story of teenage heartbreak and heroism during World War II.
