Release Date: October 11, 2022

About The Book:

At Heim Hochland, a Nazi breeding home in Bavaria, three women’s fates are irrevocably intertwined. Gundi is a pregnant university student from Berlin. An Aryan beauty, she’s secretly a member of a resistance group. Hilde, only eighteen, is a true believer in the cause and is thrilled to carry a Nazi official’s child. And Irma, a 44-year-old nurse, is desperate to build a new life for herself after personal devastation. All three have everything to lose.

Based on untold historical events, this novel brings us intimately inside the Lebensborn Society maternity homes that actually existed in several countries during World War II, where thousands of “racially fit” babies were bred and taken from their mothers to be raised as part of the new Germany. But it proves that in a dark period of history, the connections women forge can carry us through, even driving us to heroism we didn’t know we had within us.

Book Blurbs:

“The Handmaid’s Tale meets WWII in CRADLES OF THE REICH, which explores the little-known history of Hitler’s Lebensborn program and its goal of mass-breeding racially fit babies for the master race. Three German women are destined to collide at a Bavarian breeding home: a blond beauty desperately concealing her unborn child’s Jewish heritage, a Nazi official’s fanatical young mistress, and a nurse determined to keep her head down in the home’s increasingly sinister program of forced adoptions, queasy eugenics, and racial cleansing. Jennifer Coburn’s debut historical novel is adept, unforgettable, and brilliantly unsettling!” Kate Quinn
