English Summary/英文概要： Rachel is German and Jewish. She lives in Leipzig just before the outbreak of World War II with her doctor father, mother and older sister Annie. Life is comfortable, revolving around Sabbath meals shared with uncles, aunts and cousins. When the Nazis arrive, the family is ‘relocated’ elsewhere in the city, and then taken away to a labour camp. Rachel’s father saves her by making her hide in a kitchen cupboard, forbidding her to speak. The damage is done. Rachel remains mute —for years — as a result.

Rachel is discovered by a neighbour, Gertrude, who conceals her in her own home until Rachel is taken into care by the Red Cross and sent to an orphanage in England. But where is Rachel’s family?

From the author of Hello God, a beautifully written and moving story that looks at one of the most horrifying episodes in our world’s history through the eyes of a young girl.
