It covers her discovery that her grandfather was Amon Göth, nicknamed the "Butcher of Płaszów" and famously depicted in Steven Spielberg's 1993 film Schindler's List.[1] Teege was adopted and learned about her family history after reading a biography of her biological mother, Monika Hertwig [de].[2][3][4]
The book was published in the United Kingdom and United States on 14 April 2015 through The Experiment publishing and was co-written by Nikola Sellmair.[5][6][7] The work details Teege's discovery of her ancestry and her attempts to come to terms with this revelation.
