After the Nazis took my parents I was scared
After they killed my best friend I was angry
After they ruined my thirteenth birthday I was determined
To get to the forest
To join forces with Gabriek and Yuli
To be a family
To defeat the Nazis after all

'Haunting... dangerous and desperate, but also full of courage and hope.' The Guardian

Determined to survive the Holocaust and make a difference, Felix joins a group of partisan fighters and assists their doctor. Using his skills and experiences to help others, he slowly comes to terms with his past and the loss of his loved ones.

A powerful and moving story that highlights the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity and the hope that can be found even in the darkest of times.
