  "Fantastic As Always" by Silversolara (see profile) 02/07/23

Hannah escaped once, but was returned to Europe because no one would take Europeans fleeing the continent.

She called on her cousin Lily to help her because no one was allowed back into Europe without someone to vouch for them.

Hannah and Lily were close as children, and it was easy to stay with her until Hannah again became desperate to get out of Europe.

Trying to get herself out of Europe for the second time, Hannah joined an underground network called The Sapphire Line that said they would help her.

A mistake on her part caused her cousin and her family to be arrested, sent to a work camp, and then on a train to Auschwitz.

It was all Hannah's fault and she HAD to save her cousin, but how.

Ms. Jenoff has given us another marvelous, heartbreaking, well-researched read based on a true event (the train rescue) that keeps the tension high as we follow Hannah, Lily, and Micheline as they navigate the way of life taking risks in similar but different ways and through the horrors they had to endure.

Ms. Jenoff keeps you close to and empathizing with the characters through everything and suffering along with them.

Another Pam Jenoff masterpiece.

Don't miss this one!! 5/5
