Description

In 1939 Berlin, twelve-year-old Hannah Rosenthal watches her family’s privileged life unravel under the growing persecution of the Nazi regime. When her parents secure passage aboard the MS St. Louis, the family hopes to find refuge abroad, only to confront a world unwilling to accept them. Decades later, a young girl in New York uncovers the hidden history behind her family’s past, linking two generations through loss, survival, and the enduring search for home. Inspired by a tragic chapter of history, this moving novel explores exile, memory, family bonds, and the human cost of indifference.
