Halina Shore is a Polish born forensic dentist living in Australia. When she travels to Poland to take part in the investigation of a war crime, she finds herself at the center of a bitter struggle in a community that has been divided by a grim legacy. As the investigation proceeds, her professional assignment becomes a confronting personal odyssey as the truth about her own past begins to emerge.

Inspired by a true incident that took place in Poland in 1941 but was concealed for 60 years, Diane Armstrong's gripping novel is a detective story that is part mystery, part history, and part forensic investigation. It is also a tale of love, loss, and unimaginable sacrifice.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a real eye opener to the tragic things that can & unfortunately do happen during war times. I highly recommend this book. It is the first book I have read (or listened to in this case) of Diane Armstrong & I really like her style of writing. I shall be keeping an eye out for more of her work.

Excellent Story

I also gave up on this book in the first two hours. It just wasn't grabbing me and seemed to be more "blah blah blah" than story development. It did get better and I am glad I finished it, but I wish the beginning of the story was better.

Slow start, got better

The narrator does an incredible job! Not just bringing life and performance to a great story but she was able to manage many characters without leaving you guessing who it was!
And the story... Great! Well researched and written
How did we humans do such horrible things to each other and sadly why do we continue to do them?

Excellent

At the beginning of this story, I thought it was going to be a mystery set in Sydney. Thinking it was to be a run of the mill story, I put it aside and listened to only a bit each day. Then all of a sudden, the scenario changed and I was listening all day long. The narrator is fantastic. The text is rich. The story is incredible.

One of my all time favorites!

Slow build up & Character development . halfway through the book I thought. minimal events have passed & the book continues that way until all the little personality & character traits, circumstances fall into place. Mildly predictable but worth every minute once said & done. I'll listen to this again. Performance was great.

Rewarding. Worth the time to finish.
