Ariana Neumann dives into the secrets of her fatherâs past: years spent hiding in plain sight in war-torn Berlin, the annihilation of dozens of family members in the Holocaust, and the courageous choice to build anew.
What The Reviewers Say
The story...is worthy of fiction with hairpin plot twists, daredevil acts of love and unexpected moments of humor in dark times.
Neumann shares the results of her meticulous research in a brilliantly heart-wrenching memoir.
The detail in the lengthy documents [Hans] left, especially dozens of pages about living and working behind enemy lines...is astonishing. This book will be an important addition to Holocaust literature.
... profound, gripping, and gut-wrenching.
