In the spring of 1942, a small Czech town, previously untouched by the horrors of World War II, was visited by an unspeakable act of evil. The events of that spring would change the course of history for the entire Czech nation. In This Dark Age, the second book of the With Only Five Plums trilogy, Anna Nesporova recounts the harrowing tale of her survival of Ravensbruck concentration camp, the Death March back to Czechoslovakia, and her return to discover what happened to her family and town.
