Two Sisters - Betrayal, Love and Resistance in Wartime France
Rosie Whitehouse
Why did a stranger ‘stand up to evil’ to save a 15 year old German Jewish refugee? How did Rosie discover the sisters’ precarious existence on the run from the Nazis? How did her detective work reveal one sister’s active work for the
Resistance?
Rosie Whitehouse, a non Jewish journalist, uncovers the cliff hanging story of her Jewish mother-in-law and her sister, trapped in Nazi occupied France on the run from the Gestapo.
Rosie reveals the story of a family torn apart, the extent of Jewish resistance in France and asks searing questions of dispossession and betrayal that continue to haunt European politics.
Rosie writes about Holocaust survivors for BBC Online, the Observer, Tablet magazine, The Jewish
Chronicle and Haaretz. She has previously intrigued many readers with her gripping story of The People on the Beach and compiled the Bradt guide to Europe’s Holocaust memorials, museums and sites.
