The accaimed historical thriller of the end of World War II that has been called "A masterpiece of empathetic imagination and storytelling flair" (BBC History Magazine, "Historical Novel of the Year")
1944. Paul Brandt, a soldier in the German army, returns wounded and ashamed from the bloody chaos of the Eastern Front to find his village changed and in the dark shadow of an SS rest hut--a luxurious retreat for officers recuperating from their injuries and for those who manage the nearby concentration camps of Auschwitz. The hut is run with the help of a small group of female prisoners from the camps who, against all odds, have survived the war so far.

For inside is the woman to whom his fate has been tied since their arrest five years earlier, and now he must do
