Sinossi

It's September 1939. When twenty-four-year-old nurse Anna Weiss accepts a transfer to the Brandenburg-Görden State Hospital, she expects to care for children with disabilities. Instead, she finds frightened patients hidden away from their families, denied proper food and medical care, and disappearing one by one behind a locked staff door.

As Anna uncovers the horrifying truth, she quietly begins to resist. She smuggles food to starving children, alters medical records to buy them time, and joins a small network determined to save as many lives as possible. Every act of compassion carries unimaginable risk, and every child she cannot save weighs heavily on her conscience.

Inspired by the lesser-known history of Aktion T4, the Nazi program that murdered disabled children and adults before the Holocaust reached its deadliest phase, When They Came for the Children is a gripping historical novel about courage, conscience, and the ordinary people who chose to resist extraordinary evil.

Because the Holocaust didn't start in Auschwitz.

It began with the disabled.

It began when they came for the children.
