The Crate

<p>After surviving the horrors of the Holocaust – in ghettos on death marches and in concentration camps – a young couple seeks refuge in Canada. They settle into a new life certain that the terrors of their past are behind them. They build themselves a cozy little cottage on a lake in Muskoka a cottage that becomes emblematic of their victory over the Nazis. The charming retreat is a safe haven a refuge from haunted memories.<br /><br />That is until a single act of unspeakable violence defiles their sanctuary. Poking around the dark crawl space beneath their cottage they discover a wooden crate nailed tightly shut and almost hidden from view. Nothing could have prepared them for the horror of the crate’s contents – or how the peace and tranquility of their lives would be shattered. <br /><br />Now their daughter Deborah Vadas Levison an award-winning journalist tells the extraordinary account of her parents' ordeals both in one of the darkest times in world history and their present-day lives. Written in searing lyrical prose THE CRATE: <em>A Story Of War A Murder And Justice</em> examines man’s seemingly limitless capacity for evil... but also his capacity for good.</p>
