About this listen

Meet Esther Weiss, a close friend of Lili and Océane from their days at a Swiss finishing school before the war. As we continue the epic saga from 'In Picardy's Fields,' 'The Diamond Courier,' and 'The Parisian Spy,' Esther steps into the limelight with her own gripping story in ‘The Norwegian Assassin’.

Vienna, 1938

Esther's life is meticulously planned, with a bright future alongside her fiancé, Carl Bernstein. But the annexation of Austria by Hitler shatters their dreams. The wedding is indefinitely postponed, and the Weiss family's idyllic existence is upended. Forced to flee north to Oslo for safety, they soon find themselves trapped under Hitler's shadow once again with the Quisling puppet regime in place.

Esther's world unravels further when she returns home one day to discover her entire family has been deported, leaving her with a heart consumed by grief and vengeance. She joins the Norwegian Resistance, using her appearance to procure a false passport that grants her the freedom to exact revenge on those who tore her family apart.

No German or Norwegian fascist is safe when Esther is on the hunt. While her mission gives her a reason to live, it also hardens her heart, creating impenetrable walls around her. Even Tore Ringdal, her protector in the Resistance, struggles to break through.

In a world where love and loss collide, Esther's tale is one of unrelenting courage and determination. Will 'The Norwegian Assassin' find a way to open her heart again amidst the darkness of Norway's wartime struggles?

This spellbinding story of love, loss, and unwavering courage during Norway's darkest times will captivate your heart and stay with you long after the final page. An unputdownable WWII novel that explores the depths of human resilience and the enduring power of the human spirit.
