Rainee is an award winning novelist who has writer's block. After finding an ID card from the Holocaust museum, she intrigued by a woman who had the same birthday as her and decided to track her down and learn her story. Jana is a German Jew who fled the Holocaust via the Kindertransport from The Netherlands and was fostered by a family on an English farm. Rainee meets with her and discovers she has Alzheimers and is in a nursing home. She then finds out information from the past that endangers them in the present.This was a remarkable read, going from Rainee in 1997 and Jana's past as a child. It involves Nazi hunters and those groups who protect Nazis in hiding. Very engrossing and emotional.
What happened in the past leads to a whole new future for Jana

Sounds like a moving story and one you won't forget.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting premise, not only learning about, but being deeply affected and even changed by the past...
