Budapest, Hungary: WWII. Christine is only 15 & caught in the middle of a war-torn city. Huddled in the cold, dark cellar of their bonbed-out apt building, Christine & her family listen in fear as the battle rages over their heads. They must get out of the city...but where will they go & how will they escape? Christine is learning some hard lessons about life-and death-as she struggles to stay alive amidst the horrors of war. A true story of heartbreak & heroism.
