| Summary: | "After being stolen from her wealthy German parents and raised in the unforgiving wilderness of eastern Europe, Yona has amassed a lifetime of survival skills. She knows how to find food in the depths of the harshest winter, how to build a shelter to withstand the elements, and even how to kill a man if she must--but little about the simplest human interactions. Her solitary existence is interrupted in the early days of World War II, however, when she happens upon a group of Jews fleeing Nazi persecution. Stunned to learn what's happening in the outside world, she vows to teach the group all she can about surviving in the forest--and in turn, they teach her some surprising lessons about opening her heart after years of isolation. Yona finds a special connection with Aleksander, a leader of the small refugee group. At first, she feels as though she's found a family-but when she is betrayed, she flees the forest and stumbles into a German-occupied village, where her past and present come together in a shocking collision. Witnessing the true extent of the Nazi terror, Yona must choose where to place her loyalty and her trust--and countless lives hang in the balance."-- |
