At 15, fleeing from a domineering father yet again, Adam found his escape at the military recruitment station in Vienna. As he shivered in a frozen foxhole on the Eastern Front, a Russian bullet found its mark, catapulting Adam into a series of terrifying captures and escapes. When news of Hitler’s death and Germany’s defeat spread across Europe, so did word that deportations from Hungary would soon begin. Would Adam survive his desperate trek across war-torn Europe in search of his family? Follow Adam’s journey across continents and decades as he strove to build a life in the aftermath and overcome the limitations that history had placed on him.
