Andreas, a Swiss sculptor and stonemason, grieving the loss of his wife from three years ago, discovers an old, abandoned backpack in a cave during his hike in the Swiss mountains. What he finds within the backpack—a letter written by a young Jewish refugee during the Second World War to his pregnant wife in Italy—sets him on a quest with his friend, Luisa, to find out what happened to the man, to his wife, Bella, and her family in Italy. During their search, they meet both helpful people and those who try to prevent them, even by force, from digging into a past filled with heroism but also with cruelty and betrayal. Will the outcome of the quest bring closure and peace, or will it cause turmoil and heartache?

AI narrator and shallow plot

I knew the narrator would be computer generated, but it was worse than I could have anticipated…unnatural inflection and flat pronunciation of locations and landmarks. The story was flat and seemed as if it was also AI generated. Clearly very little research was done about the historical aspects, random segments, weird relationship dynamics and amateur writing style.
Not good.
