A novel in two parts. Part one takes us to the horror of a Nazi death camp where a young doctor and nurse struggle against a brutal regime to save lives. As their relationship blossoms they join the camp resistance, risking death daily. Stolen secrets and liberation only begin another phase of the nightmare as the doctor struggles to save the life of his young love.

Part two sees the doctor's granddaughter, seventy years later, discovering an enigmatic carving that leads her on a quest to uncover her grandfather's past, his unkept promise, and the horrific secrets from which he's protected his family.

Written to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Holocaust day on January 27th 2015, this story is dedicated to the late Dr Schaeler, a Polish Jew, and a teacher at Kettering High School, and victims of tyranny everywhere. It was the pain of loss in this gentle old man's eyes that drove me to write this story. Inspiration for the plot came from a TV report and a series of burr-elm boxes made by my husband. While researching and writing Touching the Wire, I asked myself if I could forgive as many victims have managed to do. Can you? We must ensure such inhumanity can never happen again.
