Hi, all.
I have just submitted The Kommandant's Girl by Pam Jenoff to step one. This
should be an easy validation. All pages are present, and clean. Headers have
been stripped. Chapter headings and page breaks have been protected. Common
scannos and interrupted words have been repaired. As always, if you have any
questions, contact me at:

Here's the synopsis:
Nineteen-year-old Emma Bau has been married only three weeks when Nazi tanks
thunder into her native Poland. Within days Emma's husband, Jacob, is forced to
disappear underground, leaving her imprisoned within the city's decrepit,
moldering Jewish ghetto. But then, in the dead of night, the resistance
smuggles her out. Taken to Krakow to live with Jacob's Catholic cousin, Krysia,
Emma takes on a new identity as Anna Lipowski, a gentile.
Emma's already precarious situation is complicated by her introduction to
Kommandant Richwalder, a high-ranking Nazi official who hires her to work as
his assistant. Urged by the resistance to use her position to access details of
the Nazi occupation, Emma must compromise her safety-and her marriage vows-in
order to help Jacob's cause. As the atrocities of war intensify, so does Emma's
relationship with the Kommandant, building to a climax that will risk not only
her double life, but also the lives of those she loves.
Set in a time when loyalties were tested and no one could be trusted, Pam
Jenoff's astonishing debut faithfully explores the timeless themes of hope,
struggle and defiance in the face of overwhelming odds.
Happy validating.
