1942, France. Persecution of Jews begins in German-occupied Paris. Not wanting to end up in the deportation camp of Drancy, from where the only way is to Auschwitz, Eva Traube flees to the small town of Orignon, located in the free zone. She hopes to move to neutral Switzerland, but by chance she joins the Resistance movement. Using her talent as an artist, Eva produces forged documents, helping hundreds of Jewish children to leave the country. Using a secret cipher, she writes their real names in an ancient gospel, calling it "The Book of Lost Names". 2005, New York. Eva discovers that the book she thought was missing for so many years is in the Berlin Library. Only Eva has the key to the cipher, only she can return the real names to people who have lived under fictitious ones for more than half a century and help reunite those separated by war.
