Traitor (YA)

This story takes place during the Soviet liberation of a town in Poland that had just been in German hands.  The story of a boy half polish half Ukraine, a mix that is the most undesired at his point.  But Tolya does what he must to stay safe and feed.  Until the day comes that changes everything and sends Toyla on the run, not sure who he can trust if anyone.
This is a powerful book about a place you don't hear much about when World War II is talked about.  The children left behind when parents are imprisoned or killed.  Most of the children are smart enough to know who they can trust but some have no one and must do what they can to survive.  The history in this book is awesome and the characters are perfect, this is a book you will not want to miss, non stop action and suspense that will have you holding on to your chair, so be careful.  I hope the author does more books like this as it was such a good book and I hope you all will like it as much as I do.
