1939, Poland. Ania hears the explosion of gunshots before she sees the Nazi soldiers approach her beloved home. Her family don't have time to run, but she does. Hiding nearby, she listens to her sister's screams and - stroking the red ribbon she keeps tied around her wrist - she begins to plot her revenge. Ania now only has her wits to rely on if she's going to survive. She comes across a group of misfits all rejected by the resistance movement for bringing too much risk with them - a scarred Jewish man, a madwoman, a gypsy, and a quiet, handsome Russian soldier. And Ania realises she alone has the power to unite them. Together, they will destroy the people who took everything from her. Inspired by an incredible true story from the author's own family, comes a gripping story about courage and sacrifice in the darkest days of war.
