Tangled Ribbons

War and the Holocaust tear three young girls from their youthful innocence.Catapulted into their new lives, they become extraordinary women of resilience, grit and grace.An unrelenting pursuit of forgiveness and peace for humanity follows.The essences of individual humans are substantially more alike than they are different. Gertie Hall lives this truth as she rises from the young child of a Hitler henchman to a world-renown advocate for human rights. Through scientific endeavors, humanitarian efforts and a tireless fight to right the wrongs of her father, she explores her feminine self, intellect, ingenuity, and grit.A hole remains in her soul where war ripped two childhood friends away, and Gertie’s own father was complicit in the disappearance of their families. Tangled Ribbons, scene by scene, captures the life of Gertie, intertwined with the stories of her friends, Sarah and Hannah, who flee fiery Berlin and establish new identities and new lives in faraway places. Late in their lives, Gertie offers a heart-wrenching plea for amends and enfolds a new generation in their healing.If you love to read about inner strength, the pursuit of justice, and the power of friendship, you’ll love Tangled Ribbons.Get Kim Smart’s Tangled Ribbons now and experience the journey of healing.
