With each passing minute, the risk of discovery grows, and exposure means certain death.

About the author
Jack Tenor
6 booksAfter working for decades as a software developer, Jack Tenor finally retired. The power of storytelling had always captivated him, and now that he had more free time, he felt compelled to try his hand at writing his own stories.
The click-clack of the keyboard is reminiscent of his days of coding complex algorithms. But this time, instead of lines of code, he was weaving together sentences and paragraphs to create vivid narratives.

Resistance and underground patriots working to undermine Nazis. Interesting reading with a historical venue.
