Together forever, against all odds. From the author of the bestseller, The Tattooist of Auschwitz.
Heather Morris brings us a stunning new story that will break your heart, leaving you astonished by the courage and profound love of three sisters, whose promise to each other kept them alive when it seemed there was no hope for survival.
When they were little, Cibi, Magda, and Livia promised their father they would stay close, no matter what happened. Years later, Livia is deported to Auschwitz—and Cibi voluntarily joins her. Only Magda manages to hide for a while in their native Slovakia, but she too soon ends up in the extermination camp. Face to face with death, the sisters make another promise: they will try to survive. And so begins their harrowing journey across a devastated continent, which will eventually lead them to a new life in Israel.
Heather Morris has done it again. She has used the experiences of three Slovak sisters who survived Auschwitz and shared with us the horrors and joys they lived through. The author's vivid descriptions, complete with quotes, times, dates, and places, are remarkable. It is an unimaginable story that needed to be told. I am so glad she did. You will be too.
