Book Description
I often wondered how to start my story. How can I just say it plainly? My story is about crimes against children, which include rape, abuse, drugs, mind control, violence, stealing, lies, running from the law, homelessness, death and suicide. These are the words that I can use to tell about growing up being raped for so, so many years. I will explain about the dark spiral pit that a child can live in day after day. I will explain it to you from a child's point of view of the never-ending darkness that was my life. You may wonder why you never heard about my story before. Why it was not covered in the news. That's not because I didn't tell anyone when I was growing up. My story as you will see is long overdue. I tried many times to get someone's attention, but no one cared enough to understand the signs of my long abuse.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • One million copies sold! Inspired by the life of a real World War II heroine, this remarkable debut novel reveals the power of unsung women to change history in their quest for love, freedom, and second chances. “Extremely moving and memorable . . . This impressive debut should appeal strongly to historical fiction readers and to book clubs that adored Kristin Hannah’s The Nightingale and Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See.”—Library Journal (starred review) New York socialite Caroline Ferriday has her hands full with her post at the French consulate and a new love on the horizon. But Caroline’s world is forever changed when Hitler’s army invades Poland in September 1939—and then sets its sights on France. An ocean away from Caroline, Kasia Kuzmerick, a Polish teenager, senses her carefree youth disappearing as she is drawn deeper into her role as courier for the underground resistance movement. In a tense atmosphere of watchful eyes and suspecting neighbors, one false move can have dire consequences. For the ambitious young German doctor, Herta Oberheuser, an ad for a government medical position seems her ticket out of a desolate life. Once hired, though, she finds herself trapped in a male-dominated realm of Nazi secrets and power. The lives of these three women are set on a collision course when the unthinkable happens and Kasia is sent to Ravensbrück, the notorious Nazi concentration camp for women. Their stories cross continents—from New York to Paris, Germany, and Poland—as Caroline and Kasia strive to bring justice to those whom history has forgotten.
