Description

A child struggles to understand the unrelenting cruelty of the life she is trapped in, while a young mother is forced into an impossible choice to try to save herself and her children.

Each is alone in a hostile world. To survive, they have to stay free.

Those that are taken never come back and the fiery spirit they share may not be enough. They will need the intervention of luck and kind strangers to have any chance of reaching sanctuary.

But the odds against them are enormous…

…and not all strangers are kind.

May the People Know I’m Here? is set in Amsterdam in the 1940s, where the Nazis are hunting for Jewish hideaways, although they are not the only predators seeking out the weak and persecuted.

Four-year-old Anka is trapped in the hands of cruel protectors, while Rachel, a young woman who has already lost everyone she holds dear, adopts a new identity to try to escape detection. They each make one tiny mistake and are picked up and transported out.

Only through an astonishing series of events will they find sanctuary.

May the People Know I’m Here? sits on the same shelf in the book store as The Plum Tree by Ellen Marie Wiseman, The Upstairs Room by Johanna Reiss and Carly Schabowski’s The Watchmaker of Dachau.

“Wow, a triumph! A truly unique experience, I can honestly say I’ve never read a book like it.” Jeanne Revest, headmistress and English teacher

“A compelling and insightful story. Anka is a character you won’t forget!”

Amy Heydenrych – Author of Shame on You and The Pact

“An exhausting read and a story that has stuck with me even after finishing the book. Powerful. Illuminating.”

Tracy A. Grogan – Author of Flotsam

What People Say…

Kelley Jones Minor

Appreciate the personal service and care at Oceanic Ventures

Ann really took her time helping to fit my niece with her first mask and fins. We so appreciated the personal attention, and we loved that she was open to talking about dive certification, but she wasn't giving us the hard sell. We live out toward Tomball but would happily drive back here vs. going to a nearby competitor simply for the service.

Jean Jansen

Dick Long

Eric Keibler is an Ambassador

Eric is a real ambassador for the rebreather world. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Pam Radford

I learned a lot from Oceanic Ventures

I really enjoyed my Technical Diver Course and I learned a lot.

Pam Radford

Oceanic Ventures is the best dive shop

Best Dive Shop I've ever used. I've been diving since 1984 and you will not find more talented staff anywhere else. They are small, family owned and service oriented #1. You get personal service from start to finish from people who actually dive all over the world. I've taken simple to advance courses from them and the trainers are excellent. Dive trips are well organized to unique locations and always fun. This type of depth of knowledge is very difficult to find, especially in Texas.

Oceanic Ventures is a great dive shop

Great dive shop with wonderful instructors to share your passion for the underwater world. They have fun for the whole family from kids diving programs through advanced diving. Checkout their scuba diving vacation to some of the best diving in the world. I really like the Diva dive vacation to Grand Cayman.

Charles Franklin

Oceanic Ventures is the best

I have been to many scuba stores in Houston and this one is by far the best. Most scuba stores have a couple of salespersons who will show you one of the 40 types of fins and 10 types of regulators that they have in stock and immediately try to sell these to you. Most of these same stores really cater only to people just getting certified. Oceanic ventures has a very different business model. While they do have an inventory, it is not as large as other stores. The difference is that they really try to foster a dive community. It works. People come back again and again. Further, unlike many stores, they teach just about everything possible. If you want to teach your child how to snorkel, they teach that. If you want to learn how to dive 350 feet down on a rebreather using helium gas mixes and several additional scuba tanks, they teach that. They teach everything in between. Not many stores do that. Additionally, the staff is very knowledgeable about all the equipment they sell. You will never get an "I don't know about that" type of answer.
