Up until the age of 64, much of Kari Rosvall's early life was shrouded in mystery. Then, one day, a letter arrived through the post. . . In it was a small black and white photograph of Kari as a young baby, the first she had ever seen. Kari was to finally discover the dark secret of her conception: she was a Lebensborn child, part of Hitler's "Spring of Life" program, which encouraged Nazi soldiers to have children with Scandinavian women in order to create an Aryan race. And so began a journey back to her roots: to Norway where, at 10 days old, she was taken from her mother, packed into a crate, and sent to Germany to join the other Lebensborn children; to post-War Germany and her eventual rescue by the Red Cross from an attic, a tiny, neglected outcast of a dead regime. Nowhere's Child is a remarkable story of heartbreak and reconciliation, of forging new beginnings from a dark past, of the discovery of family, and of a return to an attic, six decades on. Ultimately, it is the life-affirming story of what it really means to find a place called home.
