The Point of Light
John Ellsworth
For fans of All the Light We Cannot See, Beneath a Scarlet Sky, and The Nightingale comes an emotionally gripping, beautifully written historical novel about one woman’s epic, triumphant search for war crimes evidence during the darkest times of World War II.
May 1940. As Catelyn, a new photojournalism graduate steels herself for Germany's coming invasion of her hometown Paris, she comes face-to-face with the French Resistance. These are the freedom fighters who will face down the German army after the French government has surrendered to Hitler almost without a fight. She takes up arms against the Germans in her own way: armed with her 35 mm camera she looks for the one photograph that will expose the Nazi horror for what it is.
But then she is captured and imprisoned at Auschwitz. She is taken to the home of the second-in-command and tasked with schooling his twin daughters. It is then she meets Pietor, the young German doctor at Auschwitz fighting to help the prisoners at every turn. Catelyn is drawn to him and he to her.
A key Nazi, hiding in the shadows of Auschwitz, commits an unspeakable atrocity and Catelyn secretly captures it on film. Then the man claims he was never there. Can she now smuggle the photograph out of Auschwitz and preserve it for the war crimes trial in Nuremberg? Or will his secret die with her as the SS hunts her down?
