The Ties That Bind

The Red Thread by Rebekah Pace is the most beautiful contemporary and historical tale about love, a love that never dies.

The main protagonist is a ninety two year old living in New York. He has been there since the end of World War II but his roots are in Leipzig. The novel alternates between present day and his childhood memories and then his horrific time in the camps under the Nazis.

A childhood promise made, has been kept. Fear has immobilised a life but now in old age regrets begin to surface. The wrongs of the past need to be righted.
