Inspired by a true story,
My Father’s House
is the extraordinary World War II account of a daring attempt to smuggle thousands of innocents through the Vatican and out of occupied Rome right under the noses of the city’s Nazi occupiers.
September 1943
: German forces have Rome under their control. SS Commander Paul Hauptmann rules over the Eternal City with vicious efficiency. The war’s outcome is far from certain. Diplomats, refugees, Jews, and escaped Allied prisoners flee for protection into Vatican City, a neutral, independent state nestled in the city of Rome. A small band of unlikely friends led by a courageous Irish priest is drawn into deadly battle of wits with Hauptmann and his soldiers.
Suspenseful and beautifully written,
tells an unforgettable story of love, faith, sacrifice, and courage.
“A literary thriller of the highest order.”—
