One man, one choice, two lifetimes.
In one unforgettable night, thirteen-year-old Max Spiegelman's life splits in two.
As Max sleeps, a house fire creeps through his parents' shop. Woken by smoke, Max manages to escape orphaned, disfigured and adopted by an Aryan family who change his identity and his prospects.
But when he awakes a second time to smoke, he finds he has the chance to save his parents and escape unharmed, facing life as a Jew in 1930s Austria.
In each parallel universe, he is haunted by visions of what could have been. But in both worlds, he and his alter ego share a love with an enchanting, grey-eyed girl. . .
