About this item
Product details
Kristina grew up in a country suffering under the crippling burden of WWI reparations; money was worthless, and food scarce. Then Hitler came to power determined to set Germany on a course to greatness.
It is on this wave of belief and enthusiasm that Kristina proudly takes up her post as an SS auxiliary at Auschwitz. Initially she lives in a bubble of friendship with her fellow guards, and the love of her fiancé, Hermann. But she soon realises something is badly wrong.
Kristina is swept along by life-changing orders from her superiors, and the endless, worsening horrors of the war as Germany is torn apart by its enemies.
This story is a slow burn growing to a crescendo. It is harrowing, haunting and memorable, leaving the reader with a unique insight into prejudice and war.
