A lost WWII letter found in a Swiss cave sparks a perilous search through Switzerland and Italy. As Andreas and Luisa uncover long-buried secrets of love and betrayal, they realize some truths are protected at any cost.
Andreas, a Swiss sculptor and stonemason, grieving the loss of his wife from three years ago, discovers an old, abandoned backpack in a cave during his hike in the Swiss mountains. What he finds within the backpack-a letter written by a young Jewish refugee during the Second World War to his pregnant wife in Italy-sets him on a quest with his friend, Luisa, to find out what happened to the man, to his wife, Bella, and her family in Italy. During their search, they meet both helpful people and those who try to prevent them, even by force, from digging into a past filled with heroism but also with cruelty and betrayal. Will the outcome of the quest bring closure and peace, or will it cause turmoil and heartache?
Letter from a Cave is a moving, suspenseful mystery that bridges past and present-and grips the heart until the final page. Fans of Christa Polkinhorn's other novels will be delighted to meet a few familiar characters.
