After seizing Europe, the Nazis begin to execute the final solution by conducting a census of Jews in each of the occupied countries that is driven by IBM technology. After the census in Holland, the Nazis murdered 75 percent of the Dutch Jews. After the census in France, 25 percent of the country's Jews are murdered. What made France different? At Vichy Frances National Statistical Service headquarters in Lyon, General René Carmille and his aide Miriam Dupré know spies are everywhere. They race against time to sabotage the census-based lists of Jews and mobilize the resistance to combat the Nazi death machine. In this novel, Miriam tells the true story of General René Carmille’s leadership in saving the lives of thousands of Jews the story of a quiet hero.

What an extraordinary book. A glimpse of war history from a surprising different viewpoint. The combination of the stylised prose and the incredible narration by Victoria is utterly mesmerising.
