A Woman of Fortune

THE PASSIONATE ODYSSEY OF HER LIFE TOOK HER FROM THE TEEMING LOWER EAST SIDE TO THE GOLDEN HEIGHTS OF SUCCESS—AND THE HELL OF THE HOLOCAUST

Sabine. She was both blessed and cursed by beauty and ambition. She turned her family's run-down mountain rooming house into a legendary Catskill resort. She became a mistress of survival in the show-biz jungle of Broadway and Hollywood, and a fighter for lives bound to her by blood in the nightmare of Nazi Europe. She married a perfect man she could not love, and loved a reckless adventurer she could not tame. She dreamed of founding a dynasty, only to learn how heart-wrenchingly high the cost of her desire for dominion could be. This is Sabine's story — a saga that spans the generations and captures the tragedies and triumphs of a woman, a family, and an entire people.
