The Children's War: A Novel

"Peter has had more identities than he can remember and suffered pains and humiliations he longs to forget. But, whether spy or prisoner, slave or propaganda tool, none of his roles has brought the one thing he wants above all : freedom. ... Now, arrested for bearing a false identity, he is pulled full-force into a battle against Nazi oppression."—Jacket.
