Storia0
Meet nine courageous young adults who have lived in the United States with a secret for much of their lives: they are not U.S. citizens. They came from Colombia, Mexico, Ghana, Independent Samoa, and Korea. They came seeking education, fleeing violence, and escaping poverty. All have heartbreaking and hopeful stories about leaving their homelands and starting a new life in America. And all are weary of living in the shadows.

In this unsparing exploration of one of the most powerful Americans of the 20th century, accomplished historian Marc Aronson unmasks the man behind the Bureau: his tangled family history and personal relationships; his own need for secrecy, deceit, and control; and the broad trends in American society that shaped his world. Hoover may have given America the security it wanted, but the secrets he knew gave him—and the Bureau—all the power he wanted.

April, 1945. Alle spüren, dass der Krieg und die fürchterliche Ideologie der Nationalsozialisten kurz vor dem Ende stehen. Doch in der Nacht vom 28. auf den 29. April 1945, zwei Tage vor Hitlers Selbstmord, ereignet sich das dunkelste Kapitel der damals noch jungen Stadt Penzberg in Bayern. Denn während der einst von den Nazis abgesetzte Bürgermeister zurück ins Rathaus zieht, erlässt die Wehrmacht den Befehl, alle Widerständler sofort hinzurichten. Und zwischen allen Fronten stehen die Jugendlichen Marie, Schorsch und Gustl.
