Eight-year-old Kurt Stein has always viewed the world through the safe, admiring gaze of a boy who idolises his older brother and is wrapped in the warmth of a large, loving family. Living with his parents, grandparents, and five siblings in Warsaw, he knows comfort, tradition, and the unshakable belief that childhood is about being loved and nurtured.

But when the Nazi occupation tightens its grip on the city, the Steins’ privileged life collapses over just a few months. Their home is seized, their freedoms stripped, and their safety becomes a memory. 

Forced into the suffocating confines of the Warsaw Ghetto, Kurt watches his parents under the weight of fear, and his heroic brother ties desperately to protect them all from a world that has turned suddenly and brutally merciless.

As hunger, terror, and despair rise inside the ghetto walls, the inevitable knock comes, a summons to “relocation.” Herded with thousands of others to the trains, believing that wherever they go, his family will stay together. 

But the train waiting before them is not a passage to safety. 

It is a machine of disappearance. 

A journey with no return.


About Conrad Jones

Conrad Jones spent 12 years working for the biggest quick service restaurant brand in the world.

On March 20th 1993 the IRA terrorist organization bombed the shopping center outside the restaurant he was managing that day. The experience fueled an interest in the root causes of extremist terrorists and the reasoning why its perpetrators feel justified in taking innocent lives. That incident sparked the story of 'Soft Target'.
