Parents targeted by Nazis during WWII were forced to make heart-wrenching decisions in order to protect their children.  Should I keep my child with me?  Should I send them to someone else—someone I know, or more frightening still, someone I don’t know in the hope that they will be saved?  So often I’ve asked, what would I do?  How will I know what is best, what is safest for my child?  Courage comes in many forms but making a choice like that takes more courage than I can imagine.

The Medallion

An illuminating tale of courage, sacrifice, and survival.

Two couples’ lives are ravaged by Hitler’s mad war but forever linked through the fate of one little girl.

Warsaw, 1939. The German blitzkrieg has shattered the city. As Sophie Kumiega awaits news of her husband, deployed with the Polish Air Force, she is determined to keep her unborn baby safe. She didn’t count on being drawn into the dangerous and all-consuming plight of her neighbors.

Rosa and Itzhak Dunovich never imagined welcoming their longed-for first child in the Jewish ghetto, or letting anything tear their family apart. But Rosa soon faces a terrifying reality: to save their daughter’s life, she must send her into hiding. Her only hope of finding her after the war—if any of them survive—is the half medallion she places around her daughter’s neck.

Inspired by true events of Poland’s darkest days and brightest heroes, The Medallion paints a stunning portrait of war and its aftermath, daring us to believe that when all seems lost, God can make a way forward.

The Medallion is available online or wherever books are sold.
