For fifty years, Anna Schlemmer has kept silent about her past in Nazi Germany, leaving her daughter, Trudy, to piece together fragments of memory and a single, haunting photograph.

This powerful novel weaves a tale of survival, a forbidden love, and the enduring complexities of a mother-daughter relationship, exploring the profound impact of history and the lengths to which people will go to protect themselves and their loved ones.
