Vienna on Fire
Can Greta Kolbe escape Nazi Vienna and reach America before her past and the Gestapo catch up to her?
“Vienna on Fire provides a gripping and historically accurate account of the resilience of the human spirit amid the darkest of times.”
–Erin Britton, San Francisco Book Review
Vienna on Fire by Don Gabor captures the harrowing journey of Greta Kolbe, an 18-year-old Jewish woman in 1938 Nazi-occupied Austria, whose comfortable life has spiraled into intimidation, chaos, and terror. Ordered to police headquarters for questioning about her resistance activities, Greta flees Vienna for the Netherlands and a New York-bound steamer. Relentlessly pursued by the Gestapo, a Dutch bounty hunter, and a vengeful ex-suitor-turned-Nazi, she narrowly escapes arrest, rape, and death. Minutes before the ship sets sail, Greta faces her enemies for a final life-or-death confrontation.
