A captivating family saga—an emotional story of love, a broken heart, resilience, and hope even in the darkest times. The novel is simultaneously a New York Times bestseller and an Amazon TOP-10. The author skillfully weaves together the story of Alina, a young woman in love who tries to put her life in order during World War II in Poland, and her granddaughter Alice—an eternally exhausted mother who is doing her best to raise a son suffering from autism and a gifted daughter. Alina asks Alice to travel to Poland to settle a matter connected to a family secret the woman has kept for almost 80 years. Against reason, Alice agrees to help her grandmother, leaving the children in her husband’s care. On this journey, she will have to uncover forgotten secrets, learn the true story of her family, and understand what loyalty, love, and honor really mean.
