The lives of three women are set on a collision course when the unthinkable happens. Kasia Kuzmerick, a Polish teenager acting as a courier for the underground resistance movement, is catch and sent to Ravensbruck, the notorious Nazi concentration camp for women. There she meets Herta Oberheuser a young ambitious German doctor who performs unspeakable experimental surgeries. Their story crosses continents from New York to Paris, Germany, and Poland. Kasia meets Caroline Ferriday a New York socialite. Caroline and Kasia strive to bring justice to those whom history has forgotten. A powerful novel this book made me cry. A must read so that we, the human race, never repeat the horrors of the holocaust again.
