È il 1946. La guerra è finita e l'Europa è in rovina. Il quattordicenne Felix sogna di trovare la felicità altrove. Quando gli viene offerta la possibilità di andare in Australia, coglie al volo l'occasione. Così come una persona a lui molto cara, anche se in realtà non è stata invitata. Felix e Anya hanno grandi speranze per una nuova vita in Australia, ma prima di poter accettare l'amore e l'amicizia della loro nuova terra devono confrontarsi con l'impulso omicida di vendetta che ancora li tormenta. Felix sa di non aver mai affrontato nulla del genere prima. Potrebbe non sopravvivere, ma spera di farcela. Forse. Questa potente aggiunta commovente alla serie bestseller di Morris Gleitzman è ambientata nel 1945, in linea diretta con la storia raccontata in Soon. Questa storia intensamente toccante commuoverà lettori di tutte le età. Sarà accolta con favore dai molti educatori dell'Olocausto che usano Once e i sequel per insegnare ai bambini delle scuole elementari e medie e abbracciata da qualsiasi lettore che ami le storie appassionate, commoventi e brillanti.
