A modern young teenager, Hilary, hates Jews, and joins a local Aryan Supremacy group. While in the hospital recovering from a motorcycle accident caused by her skin-head boyfriend, she is teleported back into Poland in the 1940's, into the mind of Chana, a young Jewish girl, as she gets moved into the Lodz ghetto. Chana's journey from normalcy to horror is chronicled by Hilary's observations, including the transport to the death camp at Auschwitz, where Chana and her few remaining relatives struggle to survive. This is a gut-wrenching book. I stayed up all night reading it!
