Review: Good quick read

Written with empathy and emotion, this short book is really a long short story. It briefly follows a wealthy countess as she leads many Jews to safety during WWII. Only three stars because the writer could have, and probably still should, develop the narrative much further and tell the stories of each, or of many of the rescues. The characters have much more to say about the time and circumstances. It seems to me that this could be a considerably longer story, a novel, in fact, if time were taken to write it. A good start.
