Historical

November 1943, Auschwitz, Poland

When the train carrying Rachael Kisch, her younger brother, Hannes and the rest of the Dutch Jews arrives in Auschwitz, they are unaware of the unimaginable horrors that await them. Rachael is devastated when she becomes separated from her brother. She promises to find him at all costs.

Ludwig Albin is a Polish farmer sent to Auschwitz and forced to work in the impossibly cruel Sonderkommando work group.

Rachael and Ludwig become friends, but are kept apart by the barbed wire fence which stands between them. But is love even possible in Auschwitz?

As each day passes, their relationship strengthens, and, exposing themselves to life-threatening risks, they work together with the camp resistance to help their fellow inmates and thwart the SS. The presence of Otto Moll and Irma Grese, two of the most evil and sadistic SS officers in the camp, means that death is only ever a gunshot away from them all.

As the tide of the war turns against the Nazis, will Rachael and Ludwig survive until the Russians liberate the camp? Will they find Hannes? Will their resistance activities be uncovered? In Auschwitz, nothing is certain. There is only hope.

An enthralling story of a family shattered by war and held together by the love and bravery of one woman. This novel is perfect for fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz and The Nightingale.
