Ahhhh, how lovely this story was! A sibling story set in WW2 England (and published before the end of the war, which is an interesting perspective on how much the English back then knew of the persecution of the Jews in Germany) but with a twist: a sibling stolen at birth is brought back as a dedicated Hitler Youth and plopped down in his ancestral home to cope as best he might. The stage is well set and Tony is trapped, though not for trying to escape.
I loved how Dym in particular never gives up on Tony. Toby acts out more and more, testing his brother's patience in hurtful and heartbreaking ways, and Dym....but that would be a spoiler.
No romance, no swearing.
Highly recommended!
