With the Red Army expected to thunder through the Third Reich at any moment, a sense of doom pervades Katya's world where everyone is expected to believe in the Nazi's final victory. At the end of January, 1945, East Prussian civilians are finally given permission to flee. Having spent the war years working at an ammunition factory, Katya joins her two sisters, and thousands of others, trekking with overloaded wagons along crowded, snowy roads. They're trying to reach ships waiting along the Baltic coast. They don't make it. Instead, Katya's separated from her sisters and forced to take a long and shameful journey back into the Soviet Union, a country that once labelled her kulak and destroyed her family home. Katya's dragged into a labour camp deep in the Ural Mountains. Here, with her Russian language skills from childhood, she's elevated to a leadership position as a starosta. It's a position fraught with danger as she navigates the two enemy worlds. Katya learns to eat crow, to find love, and to believe in herself."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 610 10 $a Soviet Union. $b Raboche-Krestʹi͡anskai͡a Krasnai͡a Armii͡a $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Soviet Union $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Refugees $z Prussia, East (Poland and Russia) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Concentration camps $z Soviet Union $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Forced labor $z Soviet Union $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Ural Mountains Region (Russia) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young adult fiction. 650 0 $a Fiction. 650 0 $a Young adult works. 650 0 $a Historical fiction. 650 0 $a War fiction. 650 0 $a Novels. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Goldstone, Gabriele. $t Crow stone. $d Vancouver, B.C. : Ronsdale Press, 2022 $z 9781553806660 $z 9781553806660 $w (OCoLC)1343014032 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230603011400.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FDCAFF8601D311EEACDD33752EECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
