In Kalisz, Poland 1925 Esther Stiller was born. Her father passed away just a few short months after her birth, so she, her brother, and sister were raised by their mother, with help from their closely-knit Jewish community. On her 15th birthday, she received a beautiful new dress from family in the United States, so she took the dress over to her best friend's house to show her. She was then invited to stay the night. While she slept at her Christian friend's house, Nazis were rounding up the Jewish families. This included Esther's family who suffered at the hands of the Nazis. When Esther heard about this, she knew she couldn't stay in Kalisz. So, she ran away to a farm nearby. She told the people there that her name was Edwarda Opatowska, which was a traditional name for a Christian Polish girl. She wandered around, never asking about her family for fear that someone would discover that she wasn't truly Catholic. Eventually, she was able to join up with a group of Polish people who were going to work on farms in Germany. Esther had to pretend to be Edwarda, a Catholic girl, while hiding in plain sight among Germans. Against all odds, Esther survived the war, and was able to resume her true identity!

A dead body is discovered in a locked room in a country house in the affluent Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C. Nine people were present in the house at the time, nine people who saw nothing they''d like to report and did nothing they''re willing to confess to. A document that might relate to a CIA scandal in the recent past--or to a presidential election in the near future--is missing, and much sought after. No one will know exactly what it means until it''s found. But would someone be willing to kill for it? The key to this complicated puzzle lies with two sisters, two young women who don''t quite fit into Washington''s high-stakes political arena. Retired Foreign Service agent Richard Michaelson and his friend Marjorie Randolph find themselves at the middle of this whirlwind of political and personal intrigue, and must do more than sort clues. For the most challenging locked room you''re likely to encounter in Washington, D.C., is your own mind.
