This is the story of one such innocent, a young Austrian boy who struggles to find meaning and hope amidst the chaos and horror of World War II. The calm of Alfie’s childhood in the heart of Sudetenland is surrounded and eventually destroyed as Hitler’s greed consumes all of Europe. Left behind by his fleeing family, Alfie is separated from all he holds dear. He sets out on a journey of survival and discovery--as agonizing loneliness, witnessed brutalities, and numbing hunger all determine to break Alfie’s faith in those around him. Alfie must navigate the many minefields, real and psychological, that lurk before him in his uncertain future and behind him in his troubled past. Even upon Alfie’s eventual escape to America, the very idea of family is thrown into question, as long buried secrets are revealed.Throughout this story of love and loyalty, war and renewal, betrayal and trust, Alfie finds that the most difficult road he faces is the beleaguered path of his own memories.
