Book 2 in Orphans of War series

A family divided. A war-torn continent. An impossible journey.

In the thick of World War II, Nora Brouwer is the Resistance’s most valuable asset. But when her cover is blown in a botched execution, her life is in grave danger. She must leave Amsterdam immediately and embark on a perilous journey across war-torn Europe, fighting to stay out of the Nazis’ clutches.

Meanwhile, Floris Brouwer—the city’s top Jew hunter and Nora’s husband, is hell-bent on exacting revenge on his traitorous wife. As he faces deportation to the very camps he had sent hundreds of Jews to, he seizes a lifeline to avoid certain death, but the cost is unimaginable.

Christiaan Brouwer, Nora’s brother-in-law, is stuck in Switzerland, his heart aching as he hears news of his homeland’s brutal Nazi occupation. When he’s offered the chance to escort a downed British pilot back to England and join the Allied forces, he knows he must take it, even if it means risking everything, including the life of his Jewish girlfriend, Lisa.

Will Nora make it to safety, or will she be caught and face certain death? Will Floris succeed in his mission of vengeance, or will his past catch up with him? And will Christiaan and Lisa make it through Nazi-occupied France, or will they fall prey to the enemy? Only time will tell in this gripping story of life during the war.

You can’t save them all, but you might save yourself…

From London to the Eastern Front, the Orphans of War trilogy’s second installment is a heart-stopping tale of conflicting loyalties, ever-present danger, and the will to survive at all costs.

The only way you’ll leave Auschwitz is through the chimney.

The words still rang in Agnes Markx’s head as she left the Judenramp and the hive of activity around the train behind. As a nurse assigned to Block 10, she realizes the stories of the horrors transpiring here weren’t exaggerated. Now an unwilling accomplice in the Nazi doctors’ medical experiments, she vows to save as many women under her care as possible.

Electrician Joel Kozak has access to all areas of the gargantuan camp. When the underground camp resistance reaches out to him one day, he discovers his appointment wasn’t by accident.

But when one of his friends shares a bold plan to rise up and destroy the buildings of death, he finds a renewed sense of purpose.

These three strangers are now part of an attempt to achieve the impossible without knowing each other.

To rise up, destroy the Auschwitz-Birkenau death factory, and escape to tell the world about it.

Based on actual events, Tracks to Freedom is a story of bravery and the battle to retain one’s humanity in a place where there is none.
