WINNER OF THE COLORADO BOOK AWARD FOR HISTORICAL FICTIONΒ
NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD FINALIST
A heartrending novel based on a true story of love, loyalty, and the limits we confront when our deepest values areΒ tested, by award-winning writer Buzzy Jackson
Β
How far would you go to protect the people and country you love?
Β
Itβs 1940 and Hannie Schaft is a shy nineteen-year-old law student living in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands with ambitious goals for her future. But dreams die in wartime, and Hannieβs closest friends are no longer safe as fascism insidiously rises in her country. Hiding them is not enough. Hannie may be young but she canβt stand aside as the menace of Nazi evil tightens its grip. Driven by love and moral outrage, Hannie soon becomes an armed member of the Dutch Resistance movement.
Hannie discovers her own untapped ferocityβwearing lipstick and heels to lure powerful Nazis close and assassinate them at point-blank range, and bombing munitions factories. As humanity collapses around her, Hannie finds a chosen family of friends within the Resistance and falls in love with a dashing fellow resister at a tremendous cost. Her greatest weapon is her determination to "stay human" (blijf menselijk) . . . a promise increasingly difficult to keep.Β
Β
As Hannie is drawn deeper into a web of plots, disguises and assassinations, whispers spread like wildfire among enemy and friend alike. They all know of her, if not her name: sheβs βthe Girl with Red Hair.β A match for any Nazi soldier. A true threat. And a target.
Β
To Die Beautiful is a timely look at how fascism flourishes and what good people do to fight back. Based on real events, To Die Beautiful is told with the drama and emotional resonance of meticulously researched history.
