Publisher's Synopsis
Auschwitz, 1942: Her entire body trembles as she stands in the infirmary and realises the horrifying truth. She's a nurse, but instead of saving her fellow inmates, she's about to be ordered to kill them. Surrounded by thick fog from the nearby forest, Orli stumbles from the cattle truck onto the frostbitten grounds of Auschwitz. Betrayed by her own husband for being a German resistance fighter, she has no one left in the world, and this is now her home. Orli breathes a sign of relief when her nursing skills mean she's assigned to work in the infirmary. Even in this hell on earth, she can still try to save some lives. But when she's instructed to assist Dr Josef Mengele, she soon learns that he is known as The Angel of Death, and is the most feared man in Auschwitz. At his evil hands, thousands of inmates are cruelly killed and experimented on. And if Orli is to survive, she will have to help him.
