“Liviero writes a dramatic, heartfelt tale based on a little-known aspect of the Holocaust….An absorbing account of loyalty and love in wartime, freshened by unusual historical events.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Gripping and fresh…a skilfully told, poignantly drawn narrative. The story conveys all the fear and confusion of living under a cruel dictatorship, but also how love and loyalty sustain and conquer.”—The Courier Mail
“An amazing story of a terrible time, showing the true power of family. Gemma Liviero has brought to life characters that you will feel drawn to. She paints you a picture of the life of a young boy growing up during the holocaust and his trials and loss during this time.
