The story
Before the war, in a small village, Naomi believes her dreams are glimpses of what is coming — and lately she dreams of foreign soldiers and a strange flag. No one takes her seriously. Then the Nazi shadow falls across Europe, and everything she feared begins to arrive.
Driven from their home, the family is drawn into the machinery of the Reich — the Warsaw ghetto, the trains, and finally Auschwitz, where Josef Mengele conducts his experiments on twins. As an ambitious SS doctor becomes Mengele’s apprentice and a daughter fights to stay alive in occupied Paris, the family’s fate narrows to a single question: who will still be breathing when it ends. Read in order, start to finish.
The trilogy
The Children’s Dream
Naomi believes her dreams foretell the future — and she has begun to dream of smokestacks, doctors, and soldiers under a strange flag. Trapped in an unhappy arranged marriage and guarding a secret love, she senses something evil approaching her village. Now her daughter Perle has started having the same nightmares, and the thing that is coming will make the hardship they already know look like peace.
Mengele’s Apprentice
The Nazi shadow spreads. The Aizenberg family is forced into the Warsaw ghetto, where young Shoshana comes of age in unbearable conditions. On the Russian front, an ambitious doctor named Ernst saves a life and is rewarded with the post he craves — apprentice to Dr. Mengele at Auschwitz. It is everything he dreamed of, and the price is everything anyone should fear. In Paris, Gisele searches for her father as the Nazis close in.
The Auschwitz Twins
The reckoning, inside the walls of Auschwitz. Ernst must face his own nemesis as he fights to save Shoshana, Bluma, Perle — and what is left of his conscience. Gisele is trapped in the grip of a man who has weaponized her secrets. And Naomi and Hershel are left with the unbearable question every parent in that place was forced to ask: will they ever see their girls again?
