Description
When a photograph reconnects retired librarian Eva Traube Abrams with a mysterious book from her wartime past, she must confront memories she has spent decades trying to leave behind. In Nazi-occupied France, Eva once forged identity documents for Jewish children escaping persecution, secretly recording their true names in a coded volume alongside a courageous fellow resistance worker. As danger closes in and the fate of the children—and the book—hangs in the balance, Eva’s story explores the enduring power of memory, identity, love, and moral courage. Spanning generations, this deeply moving historical novel illuminates the quiet acts of resistance that can preserve a life and restore a lost history.
