 s of&nbsp\;Between Shades of Gray&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;All the Light We Cannot 
 See\, Ruta Sepetys&nbsp\;&nbsp\;returns to WWII&nbsp\;in this epic novel t
 hat&nbsp\;&nbsp\;shines a light on one of the war's most devastating--yet 
 unknown--tragedies.</p>\n<p>World War II is drawing to a close in East Pru
 ssia and thousands of refugees are on a desperate trek toward freedom\, ma
 ny with something to hide.&nbsp\;Among them are&nbsp\;Joana\, Emilia\, and
  Florian\, whose paths converge en route to the&nbsp\;ship that promises s
 alvation\, the&nbsp\;Wilhelm Gustloff.&nbsp\;Forced by circumstance to uni
 te\, the three find their strength\, courage\, and trust in each other tes
 ted&nbsp\;with each step closer to safety.</p>\n<p>Just when it seems free
 dom is within their grasp\, tragedy strikes. Not&nbsp\;country\, nor cultu
 re\, nor status matter as all ten thousand people--adults and children ali
 ke--aboard must fight for the same thing: survival.</p>\n<p>Told in altern
 ating points of view and perfect for fans of Anthony Doerr's Pulitzer Priz
 e-winning&nbsp\;All the Light We Cannot See\, Erik Larson's&nbsp\;Dead Wak
 e\, and Elizabeth Wein's Printz Honor Book&nbsp\;Code Name Verity\, this m
 asterful work of historical fiction is inspired by the real-life tragedy t
 hat was the sinking of the&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Wilhelm Gustloff&nbsp\;--&n
 bsp\;the greatest maritime disaster in history. As she did in&nbsp\;Betwee
 n Shades of Gray\, Ruta Sepetys unearths a shockingly little-known casualt
 y of a gruesome war\, and proves that humanity and love can prevail\, even
  in the darkest of hours.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>Registration is required for th
