They fled through shadows, their hearts heavy with unspoken fears. Three sisters—bound by blood and an unyielding love—forced to abandon their once vibrant lives in Saigon as North Vietnam’s relentless advance shattered everything they knew. What had once been jasminescented evenings, and laughter became a landscape of smoke, chaos, and survival. Their escape through warravaged Cambodia was a journey carved from terror and fragile hope. Under a watchful sky, they dodged patrols, scavenged for scraps, and moved in silence as the rumble of artillery swallowed their whispers.

In this inspiring memoir, you'll journey from the dangerous nights of the Vietnam War to the cutthroat world of international aviation.

В марте 1939 г., на пороге Второй мировой войны, конклав кардиналов собрался в Сикстинской капелле, чтобы выбрать нового папу римского—Пия XII, чья фигура до сих пор вызывает споры. Критики обвиняют его в том, что он сотрудничал с Гитлером и Муссолини и бездействовал во время холокоста. Защитники папы считают, что его благоразумие спасло множество жизней, а сам он достоин причисления к лику святых. Аудиокнига историка и антрополога, лауреата Пулитцеровской премии Дэвида Керцера—это попытка ответить на вопрос о роли Пия XII во время войны непредвзято и аргументированно.
