Summary

A totally heartbreaking World War 2 page-turner by bestselling and award winning author, Ellie Midwood. Inspired by a true story.

Description

Millions of people walked into Auschwitz, but she was the first woman who escaped. This powerful novel is inspired by the true story of Mala Zimetbaum, whose fate altered the course of history...

Nobody leaves Auschwitz alive.

Mala, inmate 19880, understood that the moment she stepped off the cattle train into the depths of hell. As an interpreter for the SS, she uses her position to save as many lives as she can.

Edward, inmate 531, is a camp veteran and a political prisoner. Crucially, he's also part of the underground Resistance. And he has an escape plan.

When Mala meets Edward, he makes her believe in the impossible: they will leave this death camp. A promise is made--they will escape together or they will die together. What follows is one of the greatest love stories in history...

Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Choice, and The Orphan Train will love this breathtakingly beautiful tale, of courage in the face of tragedy and bravery in the face of fear. Inspired by a true story, The Girl Who Escaped Auschwitz shows that, in darkness, love can be your light...
