En marzo de 1944, con las tropas soviéticas avanzando, Emil y Adeline Martel enfrentan una difícil decisión: ¿deben esperar y arriesgarse a ser enviados a Siberia o seguir a los peligrosos oficiales nazis que prometen protegerlos? Los Martel son parte de las numerosas familias de ascendencia alemana que han cultivado la tierra en Ucrania por más de un siglo. Sin embargo, tras haber soportado el régimen de terror de Stalin, deciden que su única opción es huir con los nazis, a quienes desprecian, para escapar de los soviéticos y buscar su libertad. Atrapados entre dos fuerzas en conflicto y enfrentando terribles adversidades en su camino hacia el oeste, la historia de los Martel es un relato emocionante y desgarrador que destaca el poder del amor, la fe y la increíble voluntad de sobrevivir de una familia.
