Eva was arrested by the Nazis on her fifteenth birthday and sent to Auschwitz. Her survival depended on endless strokes of luck, her own determination and love and protection of her mother Fritzi.
When Auschwitz was liberated, Eva and Fritzi began the long journey home, and searched desperately for Eva's father and brother. The news came some months later. Tragically, both men had been killed.
Before the war, in Amsterdam, Eva had become friendly with a young girl called Anne Frank. Though their fates were very different, Eva's life was set to be entwined with her friend's for ever more, after her mother Fritzi married Anne's father Otto Frank in 1953.
This us a searingly honest account of how an ordinary person survived the Holocaust. It is also an exploration of what happened next, of Eva's struggle to live with herself after the war and to continue the work of her step-father Otto, ensuring that the legacy od Anne Frank is never forgotten.
