As a child whose family fled Nazi Germany to occupied Belgium and later entrusted her care to a Catholic woman, the author was too young to understand her parents' motives. As Muchman (now a teacher in Illinois) shares in this healing memoir, not until adulthood did she finally learn the true nature of this perceived abandonment from documents inherited from the American uncle who adopted her after her parents were killed.
