Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen and her best friend Ellen Rosen often
think of life before the war. It's now 1943 and their life in Copenhagen
is filled with school, food shortages, and the Nazi soldiers marching
through town. When the Jews of Denmark are "relocated," Ellen moves in
with the Johansens and pretends to be one of the family. Soon Annemarie
is asked to go on a dangerous mission to save Ellen's life.
