Out of Fire and Ash tells the story of three brothers seeking answers. A terrible accident shatters their lives, tearing them apart and separating them by years and distance. But the loss of their parents at such a young age also sparks an intense desire to know their history, a history that paints a vivid picture of how their parents met in war-torn Germany and their struggles to build a life and family together.
