A Window Opens is a story told through the journal of a young German immigrant, Meta, who, with her family fled Nazi Germany and arrived in New York City in early 1938.

The journal, uncovered by Meta's niece, enlightens the family on their lives during the war and answers many questions while revealing family secrets.
