Emily Bleeker - dual time line saga from WWII POW camp to contemporary Hollywood
Jenny Wheeler: But now, here's Emily. Hello, Emily, and welcome to the show. It's great to have you with us.
Emily Bleeker: Hello, thank you for having me.
Jenny Wheeler: Emily, When We Were Enemies, which is your seventh book and the one that we're talking about today, is partly set in a POW camp, a prisoner of war camp in Indiana during World War II.
And it dips into aspects of your own family history. I wondered if you'd like to start by just giving us an idea of how it all came together.
