About this item

Maria von Wedemeyer knows the realities of war. Her beloved father and brother have both been killed on the battlefield. The last thing this spirited young woman needs is to fall for a man under constant surveillance by the Gestapo. Yet when Dietrich Bonhoeffer comes to comfort the von Wedemeyers after their losses, she discovers that love isn't always logical. With their deep love comes risk -- and neither Dietrich nor Maria is prepared for just how great that risk soon becomes. My Dearest Dietrich sheds new light on a world-famous theologian . . . and the woman who changed his life.
