The unforgettable conclusion to the story that started with The Tattooist of Auschwitz. Cibi, Magda, and Livia were aged 19, 17, and 15 in 1942, when Livia was ordered to leave their home in Slovakia, to “work for the Germans.” Cibi insisted on going with Livia, and the two were sent to the hell of Auschwitz while Magda remained in hiding. In 1944, Magda was captured and the three were reunited in Auschwitz, and as the war turned against the Nazis, sent out on the death marches. They had so little, they had suffered such brutality, but they were strong together and found their way home. These determined young women, who had survived so much, emigrated to Israel. There they worked, prospered, found love, had children and grandchildren, always together.
