Sisters face Auschwitz's horrors, risking everything to stay together and survive.
In the shadow of Auschwitz, sisters Rachel and Toby cling to a promise: stay together. With only three gold coins and their bond, they navigate unimaginable horrors. When Rachel falls ill and is taken by Nazi guards, Toby must decide if she can risk everything to save her sister. Will the coins be enough to defy fate and reunite them? This true story of courage and sacrifice explores the depths of love and the lengths one will go to protect family.
The night that Rachel and Toby’s parents are taken away by the Nazis, they give their daughters three gold coins. “Use these wisely to help save your lives,” they tell them. They also ask the girls to promise that they will always stay together. This compelling true story follows the girls as they confront the daily horrors of Auschwitz, protecting one another, sharing memories, fears and even laughter. Always together. But when Rachel becomes ill and is taken away by Nazi guards, likely forever, Toby risks her life to use the wellhidden gold coins to rescue her little sister.
