Poland. 1944. Alfred Mendl and his family are brought on a
crowded train to a Nazi concentration camp after being
caught trying to flee Paris with forged papers. His family
is torn away from him on arrival, his life’s work burned
before his eyes. To the guards, he is just another prisoner,
but in fact Mendl—a renowned physicist—holds knowledge that
only two people in the world possess. And the other is
already at work for the Nazi war machine.
Four thousand miles away, in Washington, DC, Intelligence
lieutenant Nathan Blum routinely decodes messages from
occupied Poland. Having escaped the Krakow ghetto as a
teenager after the Nazis executed his family, Nathan longs
to do more for his new country in the war. But never did he
expect the proposal he receives from “Wild” Bill Donovan,
head of the OSS: to sneak into the most guarded place on
earth, a living hell, on a mission to find and escape with
one man, the one man the Allies believe can ensure them
victory in the war.
Bursting with compelling characters and tense story lines,
this historical thriller from New York Times
bestseller Andrew Gross is a deeply affecting, unputdownable
series of twists and turns through a landscape at times
horrifyingly familiar but still completely new and compelling.
