Book Description


Charles Ehin has written a moving and profound memoir of his early years in Estonia, the shattering of the family, the escape to the West, and finally his reconciliation with his sister who, along with his mother, were left behind in Estonia as the Red Army advanced on Tallinn.

“…a powerful and awakening reminder of the fate of a small nation caught in the middle of the struggle between two totalitarian superpowers vying for world supremacy. It is also an excellent description of the individuals and families in the shadow of political tyranny; the feelings of insecurity, danger, longing, desperation and hope.”

Heikki Nikunenformer Commander-in Chief of the Finnish Air Forces
