A single decision. A moment of fate. A fight to survive.
When thirteen-year-old Moshe Kessler stepped off the train at Auschwitz, he was still just a boy. By the time the war ended, he had seen more horror than most men do in a lifetime. Torn from his family and thrust into a world where survival was the only currency, Moshe faced impossible choices, cruel betrayals, and unexpected acts of kindness that kept him alive.
From the suffocating walls of the ghetto to the terror of Auschwitz, from the brutal forced labor camps to the death marches that tested the limits of human endurance, this gripping true story follows Moshe's harrowing journey through one of history's darkest times. At Buchenwald, fate led him to Block 66-an unlikely sanctuary where a secret network of brave men risked everything to protect the youngest prisoners from certain death.
This book is more than a Holocaust memoir-it is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the power of hope, and the unwavering will to live.
