Opis
For three women living through World War II, the threat of war poses
very separate issues - that is, until their lives become intertwined in
the most tragic of circumstances.
New York socialite Caroline Ferriday has her hands full with her post at
the French consulate. But the privileged life to which she is accustomed
is turned upside down when her lover suddenly and suspiciously
disappears.
An ocean away in Germany, indoctrinated young Herta Oberheuser is
desperate to begin working as a doctor. She replies to an advert for a
government medical position, yet only upon arrival does she discover the
true extent of her horrifying new role.
As the war advances, Polish teenager Kasia Kuzmerick is drawn deeper
into the underground resistance movement. In a tense atmosphere of
watchful eyes and suspecting neighbours, one false move can have dire
consequences.
Then the unthinkable happens: Kasia is sent to Ravensbrück, the
notorious Nazi concentration camp for women where Herta now works, and
her life is transformed into a desperate attempt to survive.
As the women's stories coincide and span decades and continents - from
New York to Paris, Germany, and Poland - the devastation of Ravensbrück
is ever-present, as Kasia and Caroline strive to bring justice to those
history has forgotten . .
