Traumatized, she has no idea that Max and a few unlikely friends are battling their way through Nazi occupied Europe in a crazy attempt to rescue her. This novel explores the dark depths that humans can sink to in times of war. It is for adults only and even then; it is not for readers of a sensitive disposition. Whatever you read in this novel of extraordinary graphic Holocaust content, consider this – it was immeasurably worse, a hundred thousand times so. I now consider it the best "faction" Holocaust book I have come across. This page turner took me through a range of emotions; a perfect antidote for our troubled times. F.R.KThis is a wonderful love story as well as telling the horrific things that happened during this time. I couldn't read it without shedding tears of emotion as well as shedding tears for each and EVERY being that died in these times. I highly recommend this book. ALICE LEMON.
