The war started in Paris. Werner's sister Jutta was listening to her radio (against the rules) and heard this news. It's kept a secret from the rest of the German kids it seems, but all the Nazi youth groups are growing pretty quickly. In Paris Marie and her dad are quickly leaving, and everything's chaotic but Marie has a hard time, and her blindness is likely going to cause greater issues later on.

Jutta has a child named Max. Volkheimer comes and gives her the package and tells her about Werner, which inspires her to go find Marie and give her the little model house Werner had with him when he died. Marie also had a kid, and a husband but they got divorced (but they're still all friendly).

Werner helps Marie get through the city to the French, where she's united with Etienne and Madame Manec. Werner ends up getting captured by the French, gets sick again and dies (seems like it was on purpose).
Fast forwards to present time (2014), Volkheimer has PTSD and receives a package of Werner's stuff. Frederick has brain damage and can't function on his own.

Marie has been alone in the house because Etienne was taken away. Von Rumpel really wants the stone Marie has so he keeps coming and looking for it while she hides, and she's low on food. Werner heard her on the radio again and found her and has come to save the day.

Marie and Etienne are the ones making a lot of the rebel broadcasts, and the Germans are picking up on it. They realized that it is causing innocent people's deaths and although they feel guilty they continue to do it. I think Marie and Werner might end up meeting each other soon, but I'm not sure how that will end up going down. Probably badly.

Werner has been using his radio to track rebel broadcasts. At first he feels guilty for leading the Germans to these people, but he is starting to get used to the deaths and it doesn't bother him anymore. He got sick though and led them to the wrong place, and an innocent mother and child ended up getting killed.
Marie and Etienne are fighting back in the resistance after Madame died.

Marie wants to see her great uncle Etienne but he never leaves the house because he is scarred from the war.
Werner's sister Jutta doesn't want him to go to the school. She is skeptical of their country because she listened to broadcasts in Paris and knows that Germany sucks.

Marie and her dad are staying outside a hotel because the person they were going to see already fled the town. Madame Manec is making them food, and seems to really care about them.
Werner got accepted to the fancy school he had to try out to get into. He leaves in a couple weeks, and his sister Jutta seems to be pretty upset, and is avoiding him.

Both Werner and Marie's areas where they are staying are being blown up and set on fire. There are short chapters going between the two areas, Paris and Germany, which show that although the regions are attacking each other they are also very similar, which I thought was interesting.

Werner is at school seeing all the older boys joining the Nazis and watching plays that discriminate against Jews.
Marie is learning how to cope with being blind. She still sees colors in her mind, which I thought was interesting.

Marie-Laure is a 6 year old who visited a museum with her dad. The tour guide told a story about a diamond known as the "Sea of Flames" that allowed a prince to live forever, but also ruined his life. Marie was almost blind and then after leaving the museum went blind a month later.
