Maria Kris Heywood

Born at the end of the World War II in a small, sleepy village not far from Munich, Maria doesn't fit into her time and doesn't know her place. In an era when a daughter has no rights but the right to be obedient, she wants to belong to herself, be free, and find someone to love. If she can't have these precious things in her world she will look for them in another, and nothing and no one can stop her, because a fifteen-year-old girl is a force of nature that cannot be denied.
