A trunk was filled w/mementos from the various scribes of the underground compound in Germany during World War II. The trunk later travels to a Russian refuge camp, across the Atlantic to New Jersey toa sister of one of the scribes relative. The relative begins to unfold stories and a historical writing from the mementos within the trunk. Her connection with a German who was involved during the war help the relative to put many of the mementos into a museum in Manhattan, New York relating to World War II. A compelling, at times horrifying writing of a historical era of time. A great read.
