Upon discovering the existence of original diaries, letters, and other documents, the author traces her parents' incredible journey to freedom. Ante Sikic and Fedora Tuskan separately escaped from Croatia, their beloved homeland, in 1945. While apart, they endured many hardships but were finally reunited in Italy, after Ante secretly hiked across the Alps from Austria to marry Fedora. While attempting to sneak back into Austria, again hiking in the dark across the Alps, the newlyweds were arrested and spent part of their honeymoon in separate jail cells. Their struggles as refugees continued and culminated in a month long voyage to Australia.
Courage, faith, and an overwhelming desire for freedom permeate throughout this uplifting saga.
