About this listen
The Nazi regime claimed Terezin was a model camp, but when one London reporter lands behind its walls, she uncovers the horrors of this concentration camp that often served as a stop on the road to Auschwitz.
In 1939, Kája Makovsky narrowly escaped Nazi-occupied Prague and was forced to leave behind her half-Jewish family. Three years later, and now a reporter for The Daily Telegraph in England, Kája discovers the terror has followed her across the Channel in the shadowy form of the London Blitz. When she learns Jews are being exterminated by the thousands on the continent, she has no choice but to return to her mother city, risking her life to smuggle her family to freedom and peace.
In the present day, with the grand opening of her new art gallery and a fairytale wedding just around the corner, Sera James feels like she’s stumbled into a charmed life—until a brutal legal battle against fiancé William Hanover threatens to destroy their future before it even begins.
Connecting across a century through one little girl, these two women will discover a kinship that springs in even the darkest of times. In this tale of hope and survival, Sera and Kája must cling to the faith that sustains them and fight to protect all they hold dear—even if it means placing their own futures on the line.

A great surprise to find this was a follow up to The Butterfly and Violin. I am trying to see if there are more to follow the story, it was enthralling and leaves me wanting more. A great book I highly recommend, but ensure to real The Butterfly and Violin first.

Very god squad
The story was interesting and I realized I had listened to the first book. In triaging enough to hear the end but there should be a memo that there is a lot of god talk. Fine for people who are religious but I chose it for the story line forgetting that this author likes to pull in god to the story.
