I’ve read a lot of modern fiction set in the 1930s. The authors almost always have a character who can’t leave Europe because they are caring for an elderly parent.

Book review time!
Alan Furst has been writing WW2 era spy books for a while now. “Night Soldiers” is about a young Bulgarian fisherman whose brother is killed by a fascist mob. He gets recruited by the KGB and after training in Moscow he is sent to fight in the Spanish Civil War.
Philip Kerr wrote a series of books about a Berlin private eye. Ex-cop Bernie Gunther is a WW1 veteran who loves Germany and who could have left any time, but stayed on until it was too late.
