By (author): Heather Morris

I tattooed a number on her arm. She tattooed her name on my heart.

In 1942, Lale Sokolov arrived in Auschwitz-Birkenau. He was given the job of tattooing the prisoners marked for survival - scratching numbers into his fellow victims' arms in indelible ink to create what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust.

Waiting in line to be tattooed, terrified and shaking, was a young girl. For Lale - a dandy, a jack-the-lad, a bit of a chancer - it was love at first sight. And he was determined not only to survive himself, but to ensure this woman, Gita, did, too.

So begins one of the most life-affirming, courageous, unforgettable and human stories of the Holocaust: the love story of the tattooist of Auschwitz.

Discover the incredible bestselling The Tattooist of Aushwitz trilogy, with Cilka's Journey and Three Sisters also available now.

Sisters under the Rising Sun, Heather Morris's exceptional new novel, based on a true story of women in Japanese prison of war camps is available in hardback now.

About Heather Morris

Born in New Zealand Heather Morris is passionate about stories of survival resilience and hope. In 2003 while working in a large public hospital in Melbourne Heather was introduced to an elderly gentleman who 'might just have a story worth telling'. The day she met Lale Sokolov changed both their lives. Lale's story formed the basis for The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the follow-up novel Cilka's Journey. In 2021 she published the phenomenal conclusion to the Tattooist trilogy Three Sisters after being asked to tell the story of three Holocaust survivors who knew Lale from their time in Auschwitz-Birkenau. Together her novels have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide. Her exceptional new novel Sisters Under the Rising Sun was published in 2023 bringing another heart-wrenching true story to life with experiences of women in Japanese POW camps how they found bravery in sisterhood and the hope to survive in music.
