Una novela fascinante sobre la historia real de tres héroes holandeses que, como Oskar Schindler, decidieron desafiar al horror y salvaron la vida de más de seiscientos niños judíos.
LA GRANDEZA HUMANA PUEDE SURGIR ENTRE LAS RUINAS DE LA GUERRA
Ámsterdam, 1942. En Holanda ya ondea la bandera nazi y miles de judíos aguardan el día de su deportación en lugares como el Teatro Hollandsche Shouwburg. El profesor Johan van Hulst es testigo de las condiciones en las que esperan los niños judíos, atemorizados y sin sustento, y es incapaz de quedarse impasible ante tanto sufrimiento.
SALVAR LA VIDA DE CIENTOS DE NIÑOS FUE SU LEGADO
Para hacer frente a la tragedia, se pondrá en contacto con Henriëtte Pimentel --la directora de la guardería más cercana-- y con Walter Süskind --el judío alemán obligado a redactar las listas de deportados--. Juntos diseñarán un entramado de pasadizos a través del cual intentarán salvar a los niños, mientras se esconden de los ojos de un régimen cada día más despiadado...
ESTA ES SU HISTORIA
A través del relato de una familia sefardí que intenta escapar de su horrible destino, Mario Escobar nos descubre la historia real de las personas que salvaron a más de seiscientos niños en el momento más feroz del nazismo. Grandiosa y conmovedora, esta novela rinde homenaje a todos aquellos héroes sin armas ni banderas que no dudaron en poner en peligro su vida por la de los demás.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A fascinating novel about the true story of three Dutch heroes who, like Oskar Schindler, decided to defy horror and save the lives of more than six hundred Jewish children.
HUMAN GREATNESS CAN RISE AMONG THE RUINS OF WAR
Amsterdam, 1942. In Holland the Nazi flag is already flying and thousands of Jews await the day of their deportation in places like the Hollandsche Shouwburg Theater. Professor Johan van Hulst witnesses the conditions in which Jewish children wait, frightened and without sustenance, and he's unable to remain impassive in the face of so much suffering.

SAVING THE LIVES OF HUNDREDS OF CHILDREN WAS HIS LEGACY
To deal with the tragedy, he will contact Henriëtte Pimentel - the director of the nearest kindergarten - and Walter Süskind - the German Jew forced to draw up the deportation lists. Together they will design a network of passageways through which they will try to save children, while hiding from the eyes of an increasingly ruthless regime...

THIS IS HIS STORY
Through the story of a Sephardic family trying to escape their horrible fate, Mario Escobar reveals the true story of the people who saved more than six hundred children at the fiercest moment of Nazism. Grand and moving, this novel pays tribute to all those heroes without arms or flags who did not hesitate to put their lives in danger for the lives of others.
