The New York Times bestselling author of The House of Eve takes us from the rubble of post-WWII Germany to an elite boarding school in Maryland where long-buried secrets bind together a visionary woman, a heartbroken soldier, and a girl in search of her true identity.
Ethel Gathers, the proud wife of an American Officer, is living in Occupied Germany in the 1950s. After discovering a local orphanage filled with the abandoned mixed-race children of German women and Black American GI’s, Ethel feels compelled to help find these children homes.
Philadelphia born Ozzie Phillips volunteers for the recently desegregated army in 1948, eager to make his mark in the world. While serving in Manheim, Germany, he meets a local woman, Jelka, and the two embark on a relationship that will impact their lives forever.
In 1965 Maryland, Sophia Clark is given an opportunity to attend a prestigious all white boarding school and escape her heartless parents. While at the school, she discovers a secret that upends her world and sends her on a quest to unravel her own identity.
Toggling between the lives of these three individuals, Keeper of Lost Children is a “powerful and beautifully told” (Clare Leslie Hall, bestselling author of Broken Country) that explores how one woman’s vision will change the course of countless lives, and demonstrates that love in its myriad of forms—familial, parental, and forbidden, even love of self—can be transcendent.

Recensioni della critica
"A splendid cast illuminates this little-known WWII-era history."
"Three talented narrators convey the story of how hundreds of mixed-race children were adopted from post-WWII-era Germany in this historical novel. Karen Chilton evokes the determination and compassion of Ethel, a Black American military wife and journalist. When Ethel learns of mixed-race children living in orphanages because their German mothers couldn’t care for them, she starts writing articles, battling bureaucracy, and working to find homes for them. Ariel Blake’s youthful timbre captures 16-year-old Sophia’s efforts to succeed as one of the first Black students at an elite boarding school in 1965 and to learn the identity of her birth parents. Adam Lazarre-White superbly conveys the well of emotion that powers former Black American soldier Ozzie’s path to building a purposeful life."
