The Crystal Butterfly by Hannah Byron
This story starts out with Edda and she is studying at a ballet school. When the Russian ballet dancer joins the troop events occur that caused a medical emergency for Edda. She has to recuperate at home with her family. She is bored so bored that she persuades her mother to go to Switzerland to the finishing school where she had gone. She eats, drinks and sleeps ballet dancing.
As the war comes to the area things do change. As you discover how and who takes in the Jews to help save them or pass them from house-to-house to safety.
There are many things I really love about this book one is the information about the history another is Ballet. Mix those together with a bit of romance and the war and you have got a story for everyone to enjoy. Super love Ash and his family business.
Such emotion tragedies fear, travel, fashion, the ballet, relationships, struggles, strategy to overcome death. Really appreciate the ending and the epilogs because the author tells you what she changed with the time frame and links to find out more about other subjects that took a small part in this book.
