    In 1933, eighteen-year-old Gretchen, niece of Adolph Hitler, reunites with her Jewish boyfriend when she leaves the safety of England to return to Germany to investigate a murder and expose the evil of the Nazi regime. The girl known as Gretchen Whitestone has a secret: she used to be part of Adolf Hitler's inner circle. But she made an enemy of her old family friend and fled Munich, living now in England, posing as an ordinary German immigrant, and preparing to graduate from high school. But then her love, Daniel, a reporter, gets a telegram that sends him back to Germany. When she receives word that Daniel is wanted for murder, Gretchen has to face the danger she thought she'd escaped, and return to her homeland.

    Others: Leaning positive

    Two people. Ten chances. One unforgettable love story. Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn't exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic...and then her bus drives away. Certain they're fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn't find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they "reunite" at a Christmas party, when her best friend Sarah giddily introduces her new boyfriend to Laurie. It's Jack, the man from the bus. It would be. What follows for Laurie, Sarah and Jack is ten years of friendship, heartbreak, missed opportunities, roads not taken, and destinies reconsidered. One Day in December is a joyous, heartwarming and immensely moving love story to escape into and a reminder that fate takes inexplicable turns along the route to happiness.
