Gabriella Saab received a bachelor’s degree in marketing from Mississippi State University. She now lives in Mobile, Alabama where she is a barre instructor. To learn more about the history and experiences of the people who lived there, she visited Warsaw and Auschwitz while researching The Last Checkmate. The Last Checkmate is her debut novel.
This is the PopSugar Book of Year Award winner! The story of a young Polish resistance worker who is held in Auschwitz as an political prisoner. She plays chess to earn her freedom and fights for the justice she deserves. She is captured by the Gestapo and imprisoned at Auschwitz. Her family is sent to death, but she is not. Karl Fritzsch, a sadistic camp deputy, realizes her talent for chess and decides to use her to entertain the camp guards. He eventually gives up on her and plans to kill her. Maria is helped by a Catholic priest who helps her overcome her grief. Her strategy has been simple for four years: Live. Fight. Survive. Maria plans to cause Fritzsch’s downfall by cleverly inducing his volatile nature before his superiors. Maria will only then have the chance to escape the fate that awaits her and see Fritzsch punished for his wickedness. Maria will only be able to bear Fritzsch and her past one last time.
