Hill does a called t job of weaving the improbable with the good/evil in people. I enjoyed the audible version, with Wil Wheaton’s take on Snapshot as my favorite.

My American Dream
by Barbara Sommer Feigin
Kindle $1.99 Rating: 4.7 #ad
On August 4, 1940, the Seattle Times featured a photo of a toddler sitting on a dock, surrounded by suitcases and looking dazed. After a harrowing journey with her parents, she’d just stepped off a boat and into her new life in America. Barbara Sommer Feigin was that little girl.
Over seventy years later, Feigin made a stunning discovery: her Jewish father had kept a detailed journal that chronicled their family’s escape from Nazi Germany. Her parents had never spoken of it, and she remembered nothing of their terrifying, death-defying passage three-quarters of the way around the world—from Berlin to Seattle by way of Lithuania, Russia, China, Korea, and Japan before crossing the Pacific.
