Content descriptions
Summary, etc.: | 1942. Europe remains in the relentless grip of war. Just beyond the tents of the Russian refugee camp she calls home, Alina Dziak speaks her wedding vows to Tomasz. It's a decision that will alter her destiny-- and it's a lie that will remain buried until the next century. Little by little, injustice by brutal injustice, the Nazi occupation takes hold in Poland, and Alina's tiny rural village, its families, are divided by fear and hate. As the fabric of their lives is slowly picked apart, Tomasz disappears. -- adapted from back cover |

Summary
The Things We Cannot Say
A USA Today Bestselling AuthorSince she was nine, Alina Dziak knew she would marry her best friend, Tomasz. Now fifteen and engaged, Alina believes her neighbors that the Nazi soldiers at the Polish border pose no threat, and dreams of the day Tomasz returns from college in Warsaw. But little by little, the Nazi occupation takes hold and Alina's village is divided by fear and hate. Then Tomasz disappears. Alina once measured time between visits from her beloved; now she measures the space between hope and despair. Slipping between Nazi-occupied Poland and modern life, Kelly Rimmer's finely wrought narrative weaves two women's stories into a tapestry of perseverance, loyalty, love and honor.
