Victoria / Paloma Sánchez-Garnica.
"Just after the end of World War II, in a ravaged Berlin with no apparent future, Victoria survives by singing every night at the Kassandra club. Despite having a prodigious mind capable of creating a powerful message encryption system, her daughter Hedy and her sister Rebecca depend on that meager salary to survive. An unscrupulous blackmail by the Russians forces Victoria to travel alone to the United States, where she will, however, enjoy the unconditional love of Captain Norton. There, she will discover that what seemed to be the world's most democratic society hides a rancid layer of racism and injustices at the hands of the Ku Klux Klan and Senator McCarthy"-- Provided by publisher.
