War Games

In 1936 Berlin, nothing is what it seems…

Thirteen year old Evie Harris can’t believe her luck. She’s going to Germany to compete in the Summer Olympics alongside American teammates like track star Jesse Owens. True, there’s something creepy about Germany’s leader, Adolf Hitler, who watches over the games from his booth high above the stadium. But Evie’s just there to win a gold medal in gymnastics.

Until she discovers a horrible secret.

Behind all the Olympic fanfare, Hitler and the Nazis have Berlin in an iron grip of terror and violence—and war is brewing. Evie gets mixed up a mysterious plot to help steal Nazi gold, and soon she’s navigating the city’s darkest corners and hidden passageways, never sure who’s a friend, and who’s a foe.

Can Evie stand up to evil and follow her Olympic dreams?
