Warsaw, 1942. Sixteen-year-old Mira smuggles food into the Warsaw ghetto to keep herself and her
family alive. When she discovers that the entire ghetto is to be "liquidated"—killed or "resettled" to
concentration camps—she desperately tries to find a way to save her family. She meets a group of young
people who are planning the unthinkable: an uprising against the occupying forces. Mira joins the resistance
fighters who, with minimal supplies and weapons, end up holding out longer against the SS than anyone
had thought possible. Much longer. For twenty-eight days. During this time, Mira has to decide where her heart belongs. To Amos, who wants to take as many
Nazis as he can with him to the grave? Or to Daniel, who wants to help the orphans in the shelter? These
are twenty-eight days in which Mira experiences moments of great humanity, betrayal, suffering, and even
moments of happiness.
