There are quite a few books that have many takes on the section of history involving Nazis and their destruction, but this one took a new take that I loved! Nora is a daughter who is completely unaware of her past as her parents moved her from Amsterdam just after she was born and did not dwell on their past once they settled in Texas. She comes home from work to find her young daughter is kidnapped and her mother has been murdered except a Dutch man is also dead in her home and here is where the story begins.

Moving easily through past and present, the author takes the reader and Nora through Nora's past to enable her to solve the mystery of what happened to her family's past that may have caused her mother's murder. It was so interesting to hear a new side of Nazi involvement in people's lives, but there was more to this story beyond that part of history. The theme of family was apparent in each chapter as Nora was trying to define what her family looked like and what was her new reality.
