The first in a new series from Petra Durst-Benning, the bestselling
author of The Glassblower series.
An inspiring historical tale of one woman risking it all for her dreams
set in 1890s Berlin.
After the tragic death of her little brother, Josephine travels to the
Black Forest to heal. There she discovers a feeling of freedom astride a
brand-new invention: the bicycle. The very idea of a woman on a bicycle
is beyond taboo--it is indecent and even illegal--but Josephine will not
be deterred. Back home, Josephine rides under cover of night, while the
world is still asleep so as not to provoke a scandal. But Berlin's
streets are dangerous and the winds of change are blowing.
Can Josephine's fighting heart help her overcome the obstacles in her
path? Will the passion she feels for this new adventure lead her toward
true love?
