(Starred Review.) [A] harrowing, thematically rich thriller.... [This] deadly odyssey into and out of this 20th-century hell drives toward a compelling celebration of the human will to survive, remember, and overcome.
Publishers Weekly
(Starred Review.) As moving as it is gripping. A winner on all fronts.
Booklist
(Starred Review.) [A] heart-pounding thriller set in the bowels of Auschwitz.... [D]on't bet on the outcome of this one, and do keep your tissues handy. This is Gross' best work yet, with his heart and soul imprinted on every page.
