Book review: A Night Divided

Image
      " A Night Divided" is a wonderful book about a family that will do anything to get back together again. It tells about the life in a communist country, and a dangerous path to freedom. From the cold war going on between East Germany and West Germany, to the Russians that have invaded the city, there are many risks in trying to cross the wall to find a better life. With fast paced action, confusing codes, and a plan more dangerous than anyone had expected, this book is sure to keep you turning pages.     Gerta had never expected the wall to go up. No one had. The Berlin Wall had gone up overnight; a night where her brother, Dominic, and her father were in the West, while she, her mother, and older brother Fritz, were in the East. After four years passed, Gerta sees her brother on the other side of the wall, and the next day, her father.  After mysterious motions, and an unusual drawing, a plan is unfolds. The only question is, will they make it?     Jennifer A. Neilson h
