I absolutely fell in love with this book, it was fantastic. Easily five stars. Will be recommending to everyone who loves historical fiction!

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!

Another story from one of my favorite authors. Well researched WWII story. Told with the love they had for their family. Great story! Thank you to NetGalley for a chance to read this ARC. The review is my own

A Father's Unyielding Quest
War has taken everything from Pitor Bar: his life, his home, his family, and the woman who once gave him hope. Before she dies, Mila makes him swear to survive and to find their son. Haunted by loss and driven by love, Pitor embarks on a dangerous journey deep into the heart of Nazi Germany. Armed with a false identity and an unbreakable will, he walks among his enemies, searching for a boy who may no longer remember him. Every step demands an impossible choice. To stay alive, Pitor must become what he hates. To find Jakup, he must risk everything, even his soul.
"Searching for Jakup" is a powerful and emotional read, a gripping novel of survival, sacrifice, and the quiet, defiant strength of a father’s love against unimaginable evil in the darkest times.
Kagan’s reputation for vivid storytelling and emotionally resonant characters is likely to deliver both historical insight and heart-wrenching drama to anyone who reads this book. Thanks to NetGalley and to the publishers of this book for giving me a free advance copy to preview. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I was executed to get this after the first installment, and I can’t wait for the next one! However, I have to wonder what Rudolf Hess was doing at an Eagle’s Nest party in 1943 when he was a prisoner in England as of 1941 until the Nuremberg Trials in 1946.
