A forbidden love. A long-lost photograph. A family secret that will change everything.

Poland, 1940. With little more than the clothes on her back and a terrible secret in her heart, Irena wants nothing more than to survive the war in the quiet town of Glojsce. She never planned to stay - and certainly not to fall in love with Witek, the local shoemaker's handsome apprentice. But Witek is harboring a dangerous secret of his own... And when the Nazis descend on the town and the truth comes to light, no amount of love can keep them from being torn apart at the gates of Auschwitz, without knowing if they will ever meet again.

Austria, 2005. Rosalie's life is falling apart. With her career in ruins and her long-term relationship suddenly over, she returns home to care for her ailing mother. Masha and Rosalie have never seen eye to eye, and their fragile bond is pushed to its limit when Rosalie discovers a faded photograph of a couple, hidden in her mother's attic. Rosalie knows the photograph must have been taken long before her mother was even born - yet the resemblance she bears to the woman is uncanny.

To Rosalie, the photograph is a mystery begging to be solved. To Masha, it is something better left buried. And as long-hidden truths start to resurface, the tale of a child born in the darkest of places begins to take shape, confronting both mother and daughter with a history that could redefine their understanding of love, loss, and who they truly are.

The Lost Child of Auschwitz is an unbelievable and heartbreaking story of courage, identity, and the strength it takes to save what matters most, perfect for fans of Ellie Midwood and Anna Stuart.
