Meet Three Angels - As Angels Weep

Book 4 of The Juno Letters series is "As Angels Weep" - inspired by this photograph taken in the 1930s. It is the story of the Kindertransport - the effort by people of conscience throughout Europe who worked to save its children:

Throughout Nazi-occupied Europe, amidst tyranny and terror, common people gathered around their kitchen tables and plotted treason. It was a crime against the state to save a life.

"As Angels Weep" is the story of just three of the survivors hidden during the Holocaust by these quiet heroes. They remain mostly anonymous. We can never know how many there were. We can never know their names. We must be content to know they existed, and stood against a great evil ... alone and resolute.


I used these three girls as the heroines of the story - and their picture gave me inspiration through the tough times, fighting writer's block, juggling story pieces, thinking "why am I doing this?" and finally finishing the first draft, and going into editing.

Look for "As Angels Weep" - Book 4 of The Juno Letters in August.
