"Natan Borkowski has it all. In line to take over the successful family business, his future is set. Julia Horowitz lives in poverty. The daughter of a shoemaker, she dreams of a different life -- a different world. Everything changes when Hitler's armies invade Poland. Natan's future is ripped away by the flick of a switch of a Luftwaffe pilot. When the smoke clears, Julia and her family find themselves locked within the walls of the newly-formed Jewish ghetto. On opposite sides of the wall, Natan and Julia's lives are not so different anymore. As the Nazis unleash a reign of hunger, terror, and death across the city, they must now decide what's more terrifying: to die on their knees, or go down fighting?" --Back cover
