Hidden in Plain Sight - Julie Brill

Send us Fan MailAuthor Julie Brill stops by to discuss her latest release and more. ***Discover a powerful, untold chapter of Holocaust history, and a daughter's enduring quest to know the story that began a generation before her birth. From childhood, Julie Brill struggled to understand how her father survived as a young Jewish boy in Belgrade, where Nazis murdered 90 percent of the Jewish population without gas chambers or cattle cars. Through exacting research, a bit of luck, and three emotional trips to Serbia, she pieces together her family's lost past, unearths secrets, and returns to her father a small part of what the Nazis stole: his own family history.  About the Author Julie Brill Julie Brill has been collecting family stories since she was a little girl.
