About

The story follows the Benecke family as they are uprooted from their home in Liechtenstein
by the Gestapo and are sent by cattle car to Auschwitz concentration camp. Through lucid
details and engaging dialogue, the author captures the traumatic and melancholy experiences
the family and countless other Jewish men, women, and children undergo as prisoners in the
most notorious of death camps. From their arrival on the platform and through the selection
process, the family witnesses the traumatic, horrid acts of violence perpetrated upon the
innocent prisoners by the sadistic, heartless camp personnel. Through their faith in God, tacit
resilience, and the unorthodox assistance of an SS officer the family finds a way to survive
and share their experiences for posterity.
