Historický román o odvaze, přežití a triumfu inspirovaný neuvěřitelným příběhem jedné rodiny. Koncem března 1944, když se Stalinovy jednotky tlačí na Ukrajinu, musí mladý Emil a Adeline Martelovi učinit strašlivé rozhodnutí: čekat na vpád sovětského medvěda a riskovat, že budou posláni na Sibiř? Nebo neochotně následovat vlky – vražedné nacistické důstojníky, kteří se zavázali chránit „čistokrevné“ Němce? Martelovi jsou jednou z mnoha rodin německého původu, jejichž předkové farmařili na Ukrajině více než sto let. Ale poté, co už před válkou žili za Stalinova děsivého režimu, se Emil a Adeline rozhodnou, že musí utéct ze své země s vlky, kterými pohrdají, aby unikli Sovětům a vydali se hledat svobodu. Příběh Martelových, chycených mezi dvěma válčícími silami a překonávajících hrůzné zkoušky, aby naplnili svou naději na emigraci na Západ, je brutálním, složitým a nakonec triumfálním příběhem, který osvětluje neobyčejnou sílu lásky, víry a neuvěřitelné vůle jedné rodiny přežít a dočkat se naplnění svých snů.

Del autor de Bajo un cielo escarlata, una nueva novela histórica inspirada por la increíble historia de coraje y supervivencia de una familia para escapar de Ucrania durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A finales de marzo de 1944, a medida que las tropas soviéticas se adentran en Ucrania, Emil y Adeline Martel se ven obligados a tomar una agónica decisión: ¿deben esperarlas y arriesgarse a ser enviados a Siberia? ¿O seguir a regañadientes a los peligrosos oficiales nazis que han jurado protegerlos? Los Martel son una de las muchas familias de ascendencia alemana cuyos antepasados han trabajado la tierra en Ucrania durante más de un siglo. Pero tras vivir bajo el régimen de terror de Stalin, la joven pareja decide que su mejor opción es huir en retirada junto a los nazis, a los que desprecian, para escapar de los soviéticos en busca de su libertad. Atrapados entre dos fuerzas en lucha y enfrentados a terribles dificultades para lograr su objetivo de llegar al oeste, la historia de los Martel es un emocionante, desgarrador y, finalmente, esperanzador relato que ilumina el extraordinario poder del amor y de los sueños y la increíble voluntad de sobrevivir de una familia. «¡Mark Sullivan lo ha vuelto a lograr! El último valle verde es una fascinante e inspiradora historia de heroísmo y coraje en los oscuros días del final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial». Kristin Hannah, autora de El Ruiseñor ENGLISH DESCRIPTION “Mark Sullivan has done it again! The Last Green Valley is a compelling and inspiring story of heroism and courage in the dark days at the end of World War II.” ―Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author From the author of the #1 bestseller Beneath a Scarlet Sky comes a new historical novel inspired by one family’s incredible story of daring, survival, and triumph. In late March 1944, as Stalin’s forces push into Ukraine, young Emil and Adeline Martel must make a terrible decision: Do they wait for the Soviet bear’s intrusion and risk being sent to Siberia? Or do they reluctantly follow the wolves―murderous Nazi officers who have pledged to protect “pure-blood” Germans? The Martels are one of many families of German heritage whose ancestors have farmed in Ukraine for more than a century. But after already living under Stalin’s horrifying regime, Emil and Adeline decide they must run in retreat from their land with the wolves they despise to escape the Soviets and go in search of freedom. Caught between two warring forces and overcoming horrific trials to pursue their hope of immigrating to the West, the Martels’ story is a brutal, complex, and ultimately triumphant tale that illuminates the extraordinary power of love, faith, and one family’s incredible will to survive and see their dreams realized.

It was a sunny, spring morning. Two birds were joyfully flying around the woods and enjoying the beautiful rays of sunshine peeking through the gaps of the tree branches. They had been friends ever since they came into this world. One was called Malcolm and he was a robin. The other was called Judy and she was a sparrow. They also had a friend called Buzzy. Buzzy was a bee. They were all having a lovely day until some naughty wasps got in the way.
