Rose is a courier pilot in England during WWII. Although she is an American, she has managed
to secure this job because her uncle, who is English and in the Royal
Engineers, has managed to help her get the job.
Unfortunately, while ferrying a plane, Rose is captured and sent to a
concentration camp in Germany. While
there, she endures unspeakable horrors, and meets many women who have seen and
gone through worse situations. The story
is told almost entirely from Rose’s perspective, in a diary type format. It’s an incredible story, and incredibly well
told, about a part of the camps that hasn’t had much focus. Any teen that has an interest in this period
in history will want to read this book.
