Five shots on Saturday morning changed their fate …
She was a beautiful and happy young woman who lived a fairytale life. Shurka, her beloved husband and their two small children lived in a pretty house in a village in Poland, surrounded by a little garden with lilies. This was their life and nothing could harm it, or so they thought…
WWII broke out and though the happy family thought the Germans would never reach their idyllic village, they quickly understood they were wrong and their happiness came to a brutal end. The family had to flee their house and find shelter in a neighboring Ghetto where they realized that the Gestapo was taking Jews away on trucks every night, and they were never seen again.
The family decided to escape into the deep dark forest. There, surrounded by animals, they knew that this was their only chance to get away from the real beasts. They had no idea what would await them, but they knew that doing nothing was not an option if they wanted to survive.

 Review 
"A powerful book, you must read this amazing story in order to appreciate the life that has been given to us and to hang on to what we have". 
Radio New Delhi⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐\n"Starting reading, you can't let it go, it is a story about an exceptional woman who knew to choose. Life and love. It is a story about people, Jewish people, who survived the dark yet live saving forest, while escaping from Nazi soldiers and their dogs. it is about victory of Jews who survived the holocaust, each of them in its own way".

Wendy, Amazon customer⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐\n"This needs to be both an audiobook and either a movie or tv series to share the story with more people. It is as important to hear as The Diary of Anne Frank".
