As war swept across Europe in 1940, the idyllic life of Fey von Hassell seemed a world away from the conflict. The daughter of Ulrich von Hassell, Hitler's Ambassador to Italy, her marriage to Italian aristocrat Detalmo Pirzio-Biroli brought with it a castle and an estate in the north of Italy. Beautiful and privileged, Fey and her two young sons lead a tranquil life undisturbed by the trauma and privations of war. But with Fascism approaching its zenith, Fey's peaceful existence is threatened when Ulrich and Detalmo take the brave and difficult decision to resist the Nazis. When German soldiers pour over the Italian border, Fey is suddenly marooned in the Nazi-occupied north and unable to communicate with her husband, who has joined the underground anti-Fascist movement in Rome. Before long, SS soldiers have taken up occupancy in the castle. As Fey struggles to maintain an air of warm welcome to her unwanted guests, the clandestine activities of both her father and husband become increasingly brazen and openly rebellious. Darkness descends when Ulrich's foiled plot to kill the Fuhrer brings the Gestapo to Fey's doorstep. It would be months before Detalmo learns that his wife had been arrested and his two young boys seized by the SS"-- |cProvided by publisher. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Von Hassell, Fey. 600 10 Pirzio-Biroli, Detalmo, |d1916-2006. 600 10 Hassell, Ulrich von, |d1881-1944. 650 0 Anti-Nazi movement |zGermany. 650 0 Anti-Nazi movement |zItaly. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xPrisoners and prisons, German. 650 0 Political prisoners |zGermany |vBiography. 650 0 Political prisoners |zItaly |vBiography. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xChildren |zItaly. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1933-1945. 650 7 HISTORY / Holocaust. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / Modern / 20th Century. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / Military / World War II. |2bisacsh 600 17 Hassell, Ulrich von, |d1881-1944. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00260699 600 17 Von Hassell, Fey. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00247334 650 7 Anti-Nazi movement. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00810297 650 7 Political prisoners. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01069636 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 Italy. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204565 650 7 Children. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00854835 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xUnderground movements. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945. 650 0 Political prisoners |vBiography. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xChildren. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government. 647 7 World War |d(1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01180924 648 7 1933-1945 |2fast 655 7 Biographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 700 1 Moores, Ian, |ecartographer. 776 08 |iOnline version:Bailey, Catherine, |tA castle in wartime |d[New York] : Viking, [2019] |z9780525559306 |w(DLC) 2019035994 852 0 |bscstacks |hDD256.3 |i.B266 2019
