    Summary: 
    "Years after her grandfather's death, journalist Sarah Wildman stumbled upon a cache of his letters in a file labeled 'Correspondence: Patients A-G.' What she found inside weren’t dry medical histories; instead what was written opened a path into the destroyed world that was her family's prewar Vienna. One woman’s letters stood out: those from Valy--Valerie Scheftel. Her grandfather's lover who had remained behind when he fled Europe six months after the Nazis annexed Austria. Valy’s name wasn't unknown to her--Wildman had once asked her grandmother about a dark-haired young woman whose images she found in an old photo album. 'She was your grandfather's true love,' her grandmother said at the time, and refused any other questions. But now, with the help of the letters, Wildman started to piece together Valy's story. They revealed a woman desperate to escape and clinging to the memory of a love that defined her years of freedom."--From publisher.
