THE VINES KEPT RECEIPTS by DAWN HAMANN
About this ebook
Some secrets refuse to stay buried.
When Matylda inherits a forgotten vineyard on the Polish-German border, she expects crumbling stone walls, neglected vines, and a quick sale. Instead, she uncovers a hidden collection of wartime letters that reveal the extraordinary life of Rozalia—a young woman forced to make impossible choices as World War II tore families, loyalties, and nations apart.
As every faded page uncorks another long-buried truth, Matylda finds herself drawn into a mystery that has shaped generations. Alongside Tobias, the vineyard's guarded caretaker, she must confront a legacy of love, betrayal, sacrifice, and forgiveness before history repeats itself.
Sweeping across two timelines, THE VINES KEPT RECEIPTS is an emotionally rich historical novel about the memories places refuse to surrender, the courage to face inherited wounds, and the healing power of truth. Perfect for readers who love atmospheric wartime fiction, unforgettable family sagas, and deeply moving stories where every secret comes with a cost—and every harvest offers hope.
