| The Eleventh Hour (Secret of the Rose #1) Baron von Dortmann cares for his family with the same passion and devotion with which he tends the roses in his beloved garden. He brings his beautiful daughter, Sabina, to the garden and through his stories, teaches her his wonderful life lessons about God, creation, and love. Already she has caught the eye of the young American, Matthew, and their neighbors’ son, Gustav. Amid the placid rhythms of his life, the baron looks over his estate with both a father’s and a gardener’s eyes. Unfortunately, he is not the only one watching. . . . Suddenly a storm sweeps over neighboring Poland—the thunder and lightening of the German blitzkrieg—and it will change the Dortmann’s life forever. The baron will be left with a most difficult decision. Sabina will be left with the secret of the rose.

Her father remains a captive in a dark cell, with little hope for freedom. And she herself feels imprisoned—her life a secret in a city of secrets. Suddenly she sees a face.

Imprisoned years before by the Nazis for his Jewish sympathies, Baron von Dortmann has now been rescued by his daughter Sabina. Events take a climatic turn in Escape to Freedom as the two--along with American ally Matthew McCallum--desperately elude their pursuers and seek a way out of Communist Germany. But paralleled with these years of trial is the strength of this family's courageous faith in God's steadfast care. Separated by war, Matthew and Sabina long to be together. To find her, Matthew will have to cross the Iron Curtain into East Germany, without reasonable hope of returning to the free world. While searching the countryside for Sabina and her father, Matthew is pursued by the dangerous Gustav von Schmundt, section chief for the Stasi. Matthew finally finds the beautiful Sabina and presents her with a rose, a symbol of their deep and undying love. Now Matthew, Sabina, and the baron must escape to West Germany before Gustav discovers their location. The borders are watched with hateful eyes, and the Berlin wall appears impenetrable. Only by relying on their strong faith in God will they find the courage to attempt an escape to freedom.
