"An amazing and gripping tale, full of suspenseful twists and cinematic details" ―New York Times Book Review
A remarkable true story that begins with an unexpected letter and unravels into a family secret spanning generations. After hearing that her own relatives may have been connected to Nazi espionage, Christine Kuehn sets out to uncover a past she never knew existed.
Her search stretches from Berlin to Hawaii, where members of her family became part of a covert spy network whose actions intersected with the events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Blending personal memoir with historical research, Family of Spies offers a fresh perspective on one of World War II’s defining moments while exploring the lasting impact of the secrets families leave behind.
