The Ragged Edge of Night by Olivia Hawker. "In 1942 Germany, the Nazis force Anton Starzmann, a former Franciscan monk, to return to the life of a layperson. Desperate to atone for not doing enough to save the children under his tutelage at the monastery, Anton answers an advertisement and marries a widow with three young children in a small German village, who needs a husband – in name only – to help support her family. As Anton struggles to adapt to his new life, he learns of the Red Orchestra, an underground network of resisters plotting to assassinate Hitler. Despite his wife’s reservations, Anton joins this army of shadows, his acts grow more daring over time and he is suspected of treason. How far will he go to atone for his sins and will he risk the lives of the family he has grown to love?"
