Synopsis:
The year is 2039, and Jack Fisher is the last living survivor of the Holocaust. Set in a world that is abysmally complacent about events of the last century, Jack is a 100-year-old man whose worst memories took place before he was 5. His story hearkens back to the Jewish ghetto of his birth and to Auschwitz where, as a little boy, he had to fend for himself to survive after losing his family. Jack becomes the central figure in a missing-person investigation when his granddaughter suddenly disappears. While assisting police, he finds himself in danger and must reach into the darkest corners of his memory to come out alive.

Oops! I’m on my tablet and accidently hit the wrong button, and the last entry on the Rafflecopter closed before I put my name in – it’s Vivian Vereeke. Sorry about that! The book sounds fascinating. I watched the video on Jerry Amernic’s Facebook page. It’s so sad that unfortunately people are no longer remembering what happened in WWII and the haulocost. We have so much to learn from that, but instead we are repeating it; in different countries and different groups of people. We must remember, and we must learn! I am definitely going to have to read this book!
Sounds like a really intriguing book! Thanks so much for introducing us to it.
