A journey from hatred toward understanding

Hilary’s connection to a neo-Nazi gang gives the story a present-day frame for its exploration of prejudice and belonging. After an accident leaves her critically injured, she experiences herself as Chana, a Jewish girl facing persecution during the Holocaust. The book brings these two young women’s experiences together around survival, hatred, and the possibility of change. A reader’s guide and an author interview are included, adding material for discussion beyond the story itself.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fiction about prejudice, racism, and belonging.
  • Readers seeking a story that connects a contemporary character’s experience with the Holocaust.
  • Book groups or classrooms looking for a novel with a reader’s guide and author interview.

Book overview

As part of a neo-Nazi gang in her town, Hilary has finally found a sense of belonging. But when she's critically injured in an accident, everything changes.

Somehow, in her mind, she has become Chana, a Jewish girl fighting for her own life in the ghettos and concentration camps of World War II.

Han Nolan offers powerful insight into one young woman's survival through the Holocaust and another's journey out of hatred and self-loathing.

Reader's guide and an interview with the author included.
