Story
Seventy years ago, Joe Rubinstein walked out of a Nazi concentration camp. Until now, his story has been hidden from the world. Shortly before dawn on a frigid morning in Radom, Poland, 21-year-old Joe answered a knock at the door of the cottage he shared with his widowed mother and siblings. German soldiers forced him onto a crowded open-air truck. Wearing only an undershirt and shorts, Joe was left on the truck with no protection from the cold. By the next morning, several around him would be dead. From there, things got worse for young Joe, much worse.

Story
When Pope Pius XII died in 1958, his papers were sealed in the Vatican Secret Archives, leaving unanswered questions about what he knew and did during World War II. Those questions have only grown and festered, making Pius XII one of the most controversial popes in Church history, especially now as the Vatican prepares to canonize him.

Publisher's Summary
A deathbed promise leads a daughter on an incredible journey to write about her grandfather who was a famous war hero. But this journey had a terrible destination: the discovery that he was a Nazi war criminal.
Silvia Foti’s mother was dying. Wanting to preserve family history, Silvia’s mother asks her to write a book about Foti’s grandfather, Jonas Noreika, a famous WWII hero. Foti’s grandmother tries to intervene - begging her granddaughter not to write about her husband. “Just let history lie”, she whispered.
Foti had no idea that in keeping her promise to her mother, her discoveries would bring her to a personal crisis, unearth Holocaust denial, and expose an official cover-up by the Lithuanian government that resulted in an internationally followed lawsuit.
Jonas Noreika was a Lithuanian known as General Storm. He led an uprising that won the country of Lithuania back from the communists, only to have it fall under Nazi control. He was an official during the Holocaust and chief of the second largest region in the country during the Nazi occupation, yet he became a prisoner in a Nazi concentration camp. Foti set out to write a heroic biography about her famous grandfather. But as she dug ever deeper, she “encountered so much evidence proving my flesh and blood ‘hero’ was a Jew-killer, even I could no longer believe the lie”.
The Nazi’s Granddaughter is Foti’s firsthand account of her journey, which began as an act of family pride and ended with uncovering the secret her family, and an entire nation, had kept hidden for 79 years. It addresses:
- How should our family’s past, shameful or noble, shape our identity?
- How could one man be revered as a hero, having a grammar school named after him, and yet be a villain responsible for the deaths of thousands?
- Why are some European countries still in denial about their role in the Holocaust?
- How was this kept secret until now?

Intriguing but long!
This story intrigued me instantly, however, I couldn’t help but think it was far too long! The story line was not chronological and jumped around far too much. I feel as if the author spent a lot of time explaining her journey to writing the book in the first couple of chapters.
In saying this, I think the author is very brave in discussing such a difficult topic, especially about a close relative.
Just didn’t do it for me, as I found myself zoning out quite frequently and having to rewind to clarify understanding.

A very brave story
Sylvia Foti discovered her beloved and Lithuanian hero worshipped grandfather was a Nazi
It took her twenty years to investigate this fact and then bravely to publish it knowing that she might be shunned by the Lithuanians, the country where her parents and grandparents were born
You go through the emotions with her as she tries to come to grips with this shocking fact.
A very good and interesting read.
