MP3 CD Format ROSIE WHITEHOUSE TAKES US ON A JOURNEY AS SHE DISCOVERS HOW HER MOTHER-IN-LAW AND AUNT MANAGED TO ESCAPE THE KILLING FIELDS IN VICHY FRANCE Marion and Huguette Müller's family was torn apart when the Nazis invaded France in 1940. After their mother was sent to Auschwitz, the sisters fled to the small Alpine ski resort village of Val d'Isère, where they were rescued by a brave young doctor. Through intrepid reporting and meticulous research, Rosie Whitehouse traces the story of the Müller sisters, solving decades-old mysteries in her attempt to deliver both closure and justice. With skill and urgency, Whitehouse raises moral questions at the heart of the tragedy of the Shoah: questions about complicity, culpability, and duty to your country and fellow man. She sifts through thousands of records to piece together how, against all odds, the sisters were saved--and how so many others were lost. This is a tale of shocking discoveries featuring a bloodthirsty killer, secret operatives of the French Resistance, forged documents, narrow escapes--and miracles. "Brilliantly researched and beautifully written, Two Sisters tells the story of the Holocaust in France through a family caught in the maelstrom. ... With consummate skill, Rosie Whitehouse tells a story of horror and heroism, desperation and defiance, in a remarkable chronicle of the Holocaust." -- Edward Serotta , journalist, filmmaker, and author of Jews, Germany, Memory
