The assistant of the printer

Germany around 1500: Martin Luther, a simple monk, speaks of forgiveness and turns everything people have believed in upside down. Deadly secrets, eternal damnation, and unwavering love intertwine the lives of maidens and lords, of clergymen and laypeople. Amidst the turmoil, Lisbeth and Lucas Strom try to save their family, risking everything in the process. Their daughter Lena, assistant to the printer Peter Schöffer, carries unimaginable guilt. Yet confessing it would destroy her life forever. In her saga of the Strom family, Stephanie Rapp paints a magnificent portrait of an era that continues to shape our world today.
