The Partisan's Daughter: A Novel

A Holocaust Survival Novel Inspired by True Events

A heart-wrenching Holocaust survival novel — the WWII family saga of a Jewish child hidden during the Holocaust, the righteous among the nations who risked everything to save her, and the fragile hope of redemption after unspeakable loss.

To save their daughter, they handed her over to strangers.
Now he wants her back — but her heart has found a new home.

Warsaw, 1942. With deportations looming and time running out, Aaron and Raizel make an impossible decision: to entrust their seven-year-old daughter, Machale, to a Catholic family. It is a desperate act of love — and perhaps her only chance to survive.

But after Raizel perishes in the ghetto and Aaron is deported to a death camp, all contact is lost. And when the payments cease and danger escalates, her protectors quietly let the river take her.

Magda — a devout, solitary woman — finds the half-conscious child on the riverbank, breath barely in her body, and brings her back to life. And into her heart.

The war ends. Aaron returns from the abyss.
He wants his daughter back — the little girl he lost, and the love that was his.
Machale remembers him. But her soul is torn — between the father who gave her life, and the woman who gave her a second one.
Inspired by unbelievable true events, The Partisan’s Daughter is a powerful and haunting novel about impossible choices, profound sacrifice, and the fragile ties that define who we are.

Characters well developed; good story.

I dislike the virtual voice. It wasn't terrible but I cannot figure out WHY computer voice never can pronounce the word POLISH. Who passes these novels along ?are they not checked? It's been hundreds of times in the AI books the word Polish can never be pronounced in any other way than Polish as in furniture polish. Annoying and unnecessary.
