Twelve-year-old Sophie has spent her entire life behind the Berlin Wall, guarded by land mines, towers, and attack dogs.

Sophie is backed into a corner, until she learns secrets about her family on the other side of the Wall. This could be what she needs to attempt an escape with her mother to freedom - if she can invent her way out. Author of I Am Defiance Jenni L. Walsh tells a page-turning story of a young girl standing up to oppression.
