I picked this book up from a bench in Robinson Road Reserve :)
I've left quite a lot of books in this reserve, so it was really fun to pick up one that wasn't my own. Thanks steeliepoppet, I'll read it sometime and then release again.

I didn't expect to enjoy this book as much as I did. A good, if rather sad story.
Santa Cruz 1953. Jean-Luc thought he had left it all behind. The scar on his face a small price to pay for surviving the horrors of Nazi occupation. Now, he has a new life in California, a family. He never expected the past to come knocking on his door.
Paris 1944. A young woman's future is torn away in a heartbeat. Herded on to a train bound for Auschwitz, in an act of desperation she entrusts her most precious possession to a stranger. All she has left now is hope.
On a darkened platform two destinies become entangled. Their choice will change the future in ways neither could have imagined.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
The plot was fine but the writing lacked finesse.
I also think it made excuses for the French, I personally dont think they were as oblivious to what was going on as the author suggests.
