The gripping tale about two boys, once as close as brothers, who find themselves on opposite sides of the Holocaust.
Elliot Rosenzweig, a respected civic leader and philanthropist, is attending a fundraiser when he is suddenly accosted and accused of being a former Nazi SS officer named Otto Piatek, the Butcher of Zamosc. Although the charges are denounced as preposterous, his accuser is convinced he is right and engages attorney Catherine Lockhart to bring Rosenzweig to justice. Solomon persuades attorney Catherine Lockhart to take his case, revealing that the true Piatek was abandoned as a child and raised by Solomon's own family only to betray them during the Nazi occupation. But has Solomon accused the right man?
Once We Were Brothers is Ronald H. Balson's compelling tale of two boys and a family who struggle to survive in war-torn Poland, and a young love that struggles to endure the unspeakable cruelty of the Holocaust. Two lives, two worlds, and 60 years converge in an explosive race to redemption that makes for a moving and powerful tale of love, survival, and ultimately the triumph of the human spirit.

We have the luxury of hind sight for this we know how it all turns out for the Nazis of course. I found myself cringe at decisions made, risks taken by the characters. Of course the characters don’t know, and that’s true to life.
The writer unfolds the drama slowly and builds it faster and faster until you aren’t sure what’s going to happen.
I was delighted and surprised how well written this story is. It’s near to an autobiographical of a survivors recant with richly full bodied supporting characters who bring forth a more complete picture.
I came away thinking of my own family and neighbors. How good those people are to me. It doesn’t seem possible anything like that as described in this story could ever happen to me or them. Then again, it did happen to people just like us exactly like us as described in history.
Puts your feet right there among the family and neighbors.
