A View Across the Rooftops - Suzanne Kelman
'One doesn't know how brave one is until the cost outweighs the fear'
The year is 1941 and the Third Reich has taken Holland. Whilst the Nazis patrol the streets, stripping Jews of their humanity, a core of courageous Dutch rebels form an underground resistance, risking their lives to help their Jewish allies by hiding them in attics, sheds and basements. This book is even more harrowing because it is based on a true story. We can only hope history does not repeat itself.
