An Address in Amsterdam

An Address in Amsterdam is about an eighteen year old Jewish girl, Rachel Klein, who is too busy falling in love to take the Nazis seriously when they invade in May 1940.  Her own father thinks it will all blow over.  But when her Gentile boyfriend must go underground because of his anti-Nazi activism, Rachel begins to change.  She ultimately becomes a courier for the underground, delivering messages, news sheets and false papers.  She’s not only in peril of her life, but must keep her activities secret from everyone.  After many months of clandestine activities during intensifying raids, Rachel goes into hiding along with her parents, moving from an elegant canal house to a dank basement, where much is revealed.
