My Mother’s Friend
It is August 1944, and seventeen-year-old Phee Swensson, a gifted pianist, finds herself at Camp Algona, a POW camp that opened last spring near her hometown in Iowa. Unexpectedly, she meets one of the POWs, Sgt. Horst Ebinger, the leader of the prisoner music groups at the camp. Phee is recruited to be the accompanist for Horst’s choir. Soon, the two find common ground in their shared love of music. Their friendship strengthens, and inevitably, they fall in love. (Oh dear!) It’s their secret. Can they keep it? Where will it take them? How far will they go?
