A story of courage and a fight for survival like none you have ever read. Guaranteed! Inspired by a previously untold true story... ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Thought-provoking, heartbreaking, and deeply inspiring. If you're a fan of historical fiction-especially stories that spotlight resilience and the human spirit-this one is a must-read." Juline Felbel, Goodreads Following the Nazi invasion of Poland, 13-year-old Helena is imprisoned in the Warsaw ghetto, a squalid hellhole rife with disease and starvation. Yet, although the Nazis have destroyed her home, her life, and her future, they haven't destroyed the only thing that truly matters - her family. Helena might be just a child, but she's a fighter, and she'll do whatever it takes to help her loved ones. Making sacrifices no child should ever have to make, seeing horrors no child should ever have to see, Helena bravely battles on as her world crumbles amid random killings, slave labor, and deportations. And through it all, her compassion helps to protect her family. But then the Nazis unleash new horrors. With the ghetto a raging sea of flames, explosions, and gunfire, Helena runs for her life only to hurtle straight into an unimaginable hell from which there seems no escape. And the Nazis are closing in. Can her love for her family give her the strength to survive? Inspired by a heartbreaking true story of unbelievable courage, resilience, and the strength of the human spirit, The Ruins in Which We Bleed reveals that, even in the darkest of times, one person can make a difference through the greatest power of all - love. If you didn't know this was inspired by a true story, you would never believe it possible.

Hazel, Goodreads ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Through intense research Lee brilliantly captures a forgotten struggle, the innocence of childhood crushed by war, balancing heartbreaking tragedy with astonishing courage and resilience. The prose is vivid and fast paced, with scenes that linger long after the final page." Smitha Agy. Goodreads ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I found myself staying up WAY too late to get to the last page because I HAD to know what was going to happen to Helena and everyone else. Prepare to weep, but also be prepared to be inspired."Carole Rae, Amazon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
