A Father's Unyielding Quest War has taken everything from Pitor Bar: his life, his home, his family, and the woman who once gave him hope. Before she dies, Mila makes him swear to survive and to find their son. Haunted by loss and driven by love, Pitor embarks on a dangerous journey deep into the heart of Nazi Germany. Armed with a false identity and an unbreakable will, he walks among his enemies, searching for a boy who may no longer remember him. Every step demands an impossible choice. To stay alive, Pitor must become what he hates. To find Jakup, he must risk everything, even his soul. "Searching for Jakup" is a powerful and emotional read, a gripping novel of survival, sacrifice, and the quiet, defiant strength of a father’s love against unimaginable evil in the darkest times. Kagan’s reputation for vivid storytelling and emotionally resonant characters is likely to deliver both historical insight and heart-wrenching drama to anyone who reads this book. Thanks to NetGalley and to the publishers of this book for giving me a free advance copy to preview. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

About the Book
Roberta Kagan

I am a USA Today Best Selling Author of Historical Jewish Fiction mainly set during World War 2. My father was Romany, and my mother was Jewish; when I was very young, I learned about the Holocaust. I couldn't understand how something like this could happen. So, I began to research and learn more. I met with survivors. I even met with the children and grandchildren of SS officers. But I still had no answers. I cannot say that I have all of the answers to all of my questions even now. But what I do know is that soon all of the survivors will be gone. Their message must be remembered, and the sacrifices that they made must not be forgotten. And so I humbly and with the utmost humility, I try to tell their stories. It is painful, but I must convey the darkness and horror of the time. However, I also want the world to know and celebrate the unsung heroes. Because many ordinary people acted in heroic ways. I realize that writing these books is a great responsibility. I pray every day that I can do this correctly. I am trying to reach out and touch many people, not with the message of the horrors but with the promise of hope. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering my work. It is an honor that I never take lightly.
