The lies she had to tell and the secrets she was forced to keep sent her on a lifelong search for identity, until she is finally ready to tell her gripping true story. Erika is only three when her divorced mother officially converts to Catholicism in hopes of protecting the family from the rising tide of antisemitism, but this is not enough to shield them from persecution, especially after the Germans occupy Hungary in the 1940s. Obtaining false identities and papers, they retreat to a small farming village where no one knows their true background, only to find themselves caught between the clashing German and Russian armies, both of which pose a constant threat to their lives and freedom. Now refugees in a fierce war zone, Erika and her family endure a harrowing struggle for survival that will forever leave its mark on her and her loved ones."--Dust jacket. 541 $d 20231211. 600 1 $a Hecht, Erika. 648 7 $a 1939-1945. 650 $a Hidden children (Holocaust) $v Biography. 650 $a Hidden children (Holocaust.) 650 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust $v Biography. 650 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust. 650 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Hungary $v Personal narratives. 650 $a Jews $z Hungary $v Biography. 650 $a Jews. 650 $a Christian converts from Judaism $v Biography. 650 $a Christian converts from Judaism. 650 6 $a Enfants cachÅ¡ (Holocauste) $v Biographies. 650 6 $a Enfants juifs pendant l'Holocauste $v Biographies. 650 6 $a Holocauste, 1939-1945 $z Hongrie $v RÄits personnels. 650 6 $a Juifs convertis au christianisme $v Biographies. 651 7 $a Hungary. 655 2 $a Autobiography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. 655 7 $a Biographies. 655 7 $a Personal narratives. 941 $a 1 952 $l TBPD706 $d 20240621011213.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A68A8C982F9311EF91BB113C36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
