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.
