Description
War has stolen everything from Pitor Barr—his home, his family, and the woman who gave him hope. But before she dies, Mila makes him swear two things: that he’ll survive and that he’ll find their son.
Haunted by loss and driven by love, Pitor embarks on a dangerous path deep into the heart of Nazi Germany. Armed with nothing but a false identity and an unbreakable will, he walks among his enemies, searching for a boy who may no longer remember him.
Each step forward demands impossible choices. To stay alive, Pitor must become what he despises. To find Jakup, he must risk everything—including his soul.
Searching for Jakup is a gripping novel of survival, sacrifice, and the quiet, defiant power of a father’s love in the face of unimaginable evil.
This is the second book in the A Million Miracles Series.

Wonderful story of Faith and trying to do the right thing to unite a family! this time in history must have been terrible to live thru, not know who you could or not trust. Very much could happen again : as many don't listen or know their history!

Searching for Jakup is the second book in Roberta Kagan's WW 2 A Million Miracles series. Pitor Barr had once had it all: a wife he adored, a precious son and his own business. The Nazis stole all that from him. His wife's dying plea to him was that he promises to find their son Jakup who was stolen from them. This is a promise Pitor intends to keep.
In this well plotted story readers follow Pitor as he faces danger and seemingly impossible situations as he embarks on his perilous mission. Well written and engrossing, the narrative moves quickly and left me looking forward to the next book in the series.

How could anyone give any of Roberta Keagan’s books less than 5 stars! This book is no exception. A broken hearted father missing his murderd wife and stolen child will do anything to find his son who was stolen from the ghetto and being brought up by a German couple. Terrifying and heart breaking.wonderful writing. Can’t wait for the follow up book!
