Set against the rise of Nazi Germany and the postwar world, this novel tells a gripping story of survival, courage, and hidden truths.
In 1938, young Sarah Frank escapes an SS officer whose obsession with her family turns deadly, finding refuge in a travelling circus—a sanctuary of acrobats, lion trainers, and outsiders who become her family.
Nearly two decades later, in 1957 New York, a routine zoo autopsy reveals a silver SS ring inside an elderly lion. Chief veterinarian Mark Spencer's investigation spans continents, uncovering Sarah's hidden past and revealing how courage and truth endure, even in the darkest times.
