When Family Means Risking Everything

Felix Wallner has been running from the Nazis for two long years. But when word comes that his ailing mother may not live to see the New Year, he braves blizzards and patrols to spend one last Christmas at her side.

Crossing snow-buried peaks and slipping past SS patrols, Felix reaches his family’s farmhouse just in time for Christmas Eve.

Inside, candlelight glows, the tree is trimmed with handmade ornaments, and the scent of fresh-baked bread fills the air. For a few precious hours, he feels the peace he thought he’d lost forever.

But danger is never far. Outside, enemies circle, waiting for a single mistake. What begins as a joyful reunion soon turns into a night of fear, loyalty, and impossible choices—one that could cost Felix not only his freedom, but the family he loves.

The Last Christmas Home is a sweeping, emotional tale of family loyalty, resistance, and the quiet heroism of ordinary people in the final, desperate months of World War II. Perfect for readers who love wartime dramas filled with heart, suspense, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
