Can a teenager find the courage to pit his conscience against the society he lives in?
Based on a true story, this exciting historical novel begins on death row in a German prison as 17-year-old Helmuth remembers, in flashbacks that pull readers through the history of Nazi Germany from 1933 to late 1942, how the Nazis came to power, how his idealism led him to join the Hitler Youth—and how, as the Nazi government became overtly more unjust, that same idealism led him to resist by secretly writing and distributing anti-Nazi pamphlets. An online discussion guide is available.
Quantities are limited.
