Amber Wolf

by Ursula Wong

Overview

In the shadow of World War II, Lithuania barely survives the Germans. Then the Russians come.

1944. The Russians occupy Lithuania in a reign of terror. Ludmelia Kudirka must watch while soldiers murder her mother. But she escapes. She flees to the forest, knowing she won't be safe for long.

Terrified, Ludmelia stumbles upon a ragtag band of farmers armed with stolen weapons to fight the Russians. But how can they defeat the largest army in the world? Ludmelia must decide whether to join them in an impossible fight for freedom. Or to live the rest of her life in fear under the cloak of Soviet communism.

Based on actual events, Amber Wolf is a historic powerhouse of sacrifice, survival, and love of country.
