Its 1936 in Berlin and Evie Harris can't believe her luck: She's competing in the Olympics, along with fellow American athletes like Jesse Owens. True, there's something creepy about Germany's leader, Adolf Hitler, who watches over the games with his Nazi henchmen. But Evie's just here to win a gold medal in gymnastics for her country. Until she discovers a horrible secret. Behind all the Olympic fanfare, the Nazis have Berlin in an iron grip of terror and violence and war is brewing. With lives on the line and her family's future at stake, Evie has to choose between following her Olympic dreams and standing up to evil ... before it's too late.
