The Girl Behind the Wall by Mandy Robotham

4.0

A very descriptive and atmospheric story about life for two identical twin sisters who were divided by the creation of the Berlin wall due to a twist of fate. Karin, took ill with appendicitis whilst visiting friends in East Berlin. This is the story of her sister Jutta and her attempts to get Karin back to West Berlin, whilst under constant threat of the Stasi.
Will Karin agree to follow her back to West Berlin or will Karin's love for Otto make her stay?
This was so well described, you felt for each sister in their individual agony and were rooting for them to succeed. It definitely evoked the fear that was felt for the Stasi.
Thanks to the Pigeonhole for the opportunity to read this thought provoking story.
