Years after her grandfather's death, Sarah Wildman found a number of letters written to a woman he left behind when he left Europe on the eve of the Nazi annexation of Austria. Who was this woman? Why had he left her? And why was her photo hidden from view? And, most importantly, what had happened to her? In her search, Wildman found both the answers to these questions and a host of new ones. Her quest lasted years and forced her to re-examine the story of her grandfather's escape, discovering this woman's ultimate fate, and in the process rescuing a life seemingly lost to history.
