All her life, Karo has believed that her father was killed in an accident
before her birth. So when a stranger comes to the door, eleven years later,
Karo wants nothing to do with Martin, the man her mother loved years ago, the
man who is her father.

The fall of the Berlin Wall has reunited Karos mother and father, but can
Karo come to terms with her new family, or can things only get worse for her? A
moving story about friendship and complicated family relationships, Over the
Wall is a deceptively simple story, beautifully told.
