Gertje is a first-year law student and the youngest in the Rosenbaum family.

Half a century ago, in 1938, her grandparents fled Nazi Austria. Viennese music, cuisine, and memories of the "old life"—all of this remains part of the family tradition, carefully preserved by the older generation and dearly cherished by Gertje. But everything connected with the fate of her relatives who remained in Nazi-occupied Austria is shrouded in silence and awkwardness. And one day, Gertje rebels against the family's fear and shame, wanting to understand the past that still hangs over the Rosenbaums like a storm cloud. And to uncover the secret hidden behind the name of Victor's great-uncle...

"Victor" is the debut novel by Dutch writer Judith Fanto, woven from two parallel storylines, past and present, between which the heroine must find a connection for the sake of the future, for the sake of "the continuity of life," as one of her ancestors puts it.
