Book Overview

Germany. 1932.

Sara Sch nflies, a young Jewish woman from a line of gifted tailors and seamstresses, finds her world shattered by the rise of the Nazi regime.

Her family is separated when the women are sent to Ravensbr ck. Ultimately, Sara and her sisters are transferred to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where their survival hinges on their ability to create sought-after fashions for the wives of SS officers and Nazi dignitaries in the tailoring studio of the camp commander's wife. Amidst the bleakness and horrors of the camp, Sara's determination, her sisters' unyielding defiance, and an unexpected friendship with a member of the Sonderkommando become beacons of hope.
