    About this ebook

    France, December 1941. Resistance to the German occupation is intensifying and a high-ranking German officer is assassinated in Western France. Fifty hostages are shot in retaliation, and 50 more will be executed if the killers are not handed over. Jewish communist Joseph Mazelier is on the list. His wife begs Countess Ida, a former opera singer, to risk her own life to help Mazelier escape. Will Ida agree? 

    "I thought it was brilliant." Ellie Keaton, author of Women and War series

    "A wonderful story…Tense and evocative it brought to mind the work of my personal Historical hero Nicholas Winton. Wonderful." Screenwiper
