Beauty and the Beast

What do you do when the one who stole your future is the only one who can give it back?

Eighteen year old Sophie Gabcikova led a completely normal life in the quiet village of Panenske Brezany--until the day her beauty caught the eye of Deputy Reichsprotektor Reinhard Heydrich, and he had her kidnapped for the purpose of becoming his mistress.
For twelve harrowing months, she suffered unspeakable physical, sexual, and emotional abuse at his hands. Only his death in an assassination attempt perpetrated by her brother and his six comrades freed her from the humiliation and pain she was forced to endure on a daily basis.

She could only watch as after his death, her loved ones either abandoned her out of disgust for what had been done to her or fell victim to the bloody reprisals that swept the country in retaliation for Heydrich's death.

Now she has come to the grave of the man who in his lifetime shattered her life beyond repair for one last conversation, a conversation she hopes will give her the strength to move on for good from that dark chapter in her life. In a macabre tale of pain, sorrow, and irreparable loss, she painstakingly recreates her days in captivity and beyond. And in every sentence resonates the only question she has ever wanted to ask him: "Why did you do that to me?"

Some wounds can only be healed by deepening them.
