Books True Crime Books Otto Rosenberg is 9 & living in Berlin, poor but happy, when his family are first detained. All around them, Sinti & Roma families are being torn from their homes by Nazis, leaving behind schools, jobs, friends, & businesses to live in forced encampments outside the city.

Engl&, 1937. In the village of Blacknowle on the Dorset coast, fourteen-year-old Mitzy Hatcher has endured a wild & lonely upbringing. Shunned by her neighbours, the arrival of renowned artist Charles Aubrey, along with his exotic mistress & their daughters, is like a breath of fresh air. As Charles's muse, Mitzy develops a deep & abiding bond with the Aubrey household over the course of the following three summers. Gradually, Mitzy begins to perceive a future she had never thought possible, & a powerful love is kindled in her. A love that will grow as she does: from innocence to obsession; from childish infatuation to something far more complex. It will be almost seventy-five years before the consequences of this potent desire are fully played out, as a young man in an art gallery looks at a hastily-drawn portrait & wonders at the intensity of it. The questions he asks will lead him back to Blacknowle, & draw him to the truth about those fevered summers in the 1930s. Read by Jacqueline King. ...
