She was raised by her foster family as one of their own, but a falling out after the war put an end of to their relationship. What was her side of the story, Bart van Es - a grandson of the couple who looked after Lien - wondered? What really happened during the war, and after?

5 out of 5 stars

A child's survival of the WW2 by courageous strangers.
I myself was born in Holland just after the war, and I am interested in books about that cruel and frightening period. Bart's book about this subject is one of the best and highlights superbly how the people from all walks of life struggled and coped in the war years in Holland. I finished reading the book in a couple of days because it was so compelling and I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in this period. It's a story close to his heart and I was fascinated by his revealing the stories about some of the traitors.

A really interesting book - a wonderful story of WWII and the bravery of those who hid Jewish children from the Nazis, and also the story of the friendship which developed between the author and his subject

Very readable and well written
A book everyone should read about a child surviving during the holocaust without parents or a base in order to survive. It is compelling reading and written with passion and feeling.
