I don't know how you do it.. but every single time I finish one of your books I get goosebumps and feel like crying. Thank you for sharing these beautiful but heart wrenching stories with us.
What an emotionally intense yet powerful read. Cilka’s bravery and resilience in the face of unimaginable suffering are truly commendable. Her strength and determination to survive make this a heartbreaking but inspiring story.

We finally find out what happened to Cilka, the woman who saved Lales life.
When 16 year old Cilka is taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau she knows she will have to do whatever she can to stay alive.
Not ever thinking that the torturous decisions, those she was forced to make, and those made for her, would be held against her.
When the concentration camp is liberated Cilkas nightmare is not over instead a new one is just beginning, charged with "sleeping with the enemy" Cilka is taken to a labor camp in Siberia.
Unfortunately Cilka knows this terrain, but with this knowledge she navigates through this new hell while being the rock and savior to even more people.
A harrowing story of one womans fight for justice and freedom.
This book was amazing.
So sad, yet to inspirational. I am so happy that Heather Morris wrote Cilkas story and that I had the opportunity to read it.
