FROM NAZI GERMANY TO BLITZ-TORN LONDON, A Jewish mother and daughter endure turmoil, lost love, and hardship. After years of a loveless marriage, recently widowed Clara finds solace in music and memories. Then, as living in Germany becomes more dangerous, she discovers romance for the first time. Meanwhile, Edith, no longer willing to endure Nazi persecution, leaves her first love to find safety in London and the arms of an Englishman. On the eve of war, Clara and Edith reunite in London and forge a new relationship. Will mother and daughter weather the stress of air raids, the mood swings of Edith's erratic husband, and the demands of house and childcare? Will their bond sustain them, or will it crack under the pressure of wartime traumas? Based on the true story of the author's grandmother and aunt, Ashes and Ruins brings readers the full story of Clara and Edith, introduced in K. Lang-Slattery's earlier novel, Immigrant Soldier. In this stand-alone story, the two women come alive in a tale of quiet courage and perseverance before and during World War II.
