Overview:
The sound of light is a great book! Adventure, romance of the sweetest sort, history and a story filled with Christ’s compassion and concern. The setting is Copenhagen in 1940. Baron Henriksen Ahlefeldt becomes a new person, exchanging his nobility for the identity of a rower taking secret messages for the Danish Resistance to Sweden. This new identity demands a less intellectual persona, a hard working, blue collar worker.
At the boardinghouse where Henrik, now known as Hemming, resides he meets Dr. Else Jensen, a beautiful American physicist and they are drawn to one another. Yet Hemming must keep up the facade or bring danger to himself and the woman he is beginning to love.
