The New York Times bestseller. A beautiful and elegant account
of an ordinary man's unexpected and reluctant descent into
heroism during the second world war. --Malcolm Gladwell. In 1942
Paris, gifted architect Lucien Bernard accepts a commission that
will bring him a great deal of money - and maybe get him killed.
But if he's clever enough, he'll avoid any trouble. All he has
to do is design a secret hiding place for a wealthy Jewish man,
a space so invisible that even the most determined German
officer won't find it. He sorely needs the money, and outwitting
the Nazis who have occupied his beloved city is a challenge he
can't resist.
