Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch (author of Making Bombs for Hitler ) crafts a story of ultimate compassion and sacrifice based on true events during WWII.
Faced with unimaginable tyranny and cruelty, will Krystia risk everything to protect her friends and neighbors?.
But what they really need is a place to hide.
As the Nazis force Jews into a ghetto, Krystia does what she can to help Dolik and his family.
The worst begins to happen when the Nazis blame the Jews for murders they didn\'t commit.
Krystia\'s friend Dolik and the other Jewish people in town warn that their new occupiers may only bring darker days.
But conditions don\'t improve as expected.
So when the Nazis march into town to liberate them, many of Krystia\'s neighbors welcome the troops with celebrations, hoping for a better life.
Krystia lives in a small Ukrainian village under the cruel -- sometimes violent -- occupation of the Soviets.
The year is 1941.
