Heroic Latter-day Saint teens in World War II Nazi Germany achieved notoriety as the youngest Resistance group of the century. Caught up in life-and-death struggles with the Gestapo, they played cat-and-mouse with the deadliest secret state police in the world — who made it their mission to hunt them down.

But the boys escaped being captured time and time again. Their hair-raising plans baffled the Nazis—they were so brilliant, so clever, and at times so laced with irony, that the Gestapo thought they were up against a swarm of sophisticated university professors and British Resistance agents — not three teenagers.

The leader of their group, young Helmuth Hübener, had another battle brewing — falling in love with a girl who was torn over him and his Resistance. She was already dating a young Hitler Youth leader who despised Helmuth. Yet she was the only girl Helmuth ever loved, and he had to find a way to win her over. (In real life the girlfriend was the love of his life.) Meanwhile his faith was the rock of his life.

Relying on hundreds of documented facts, this story of the boys — as with all novels — adds fiction,but in this case, the conversations and conflicts are strongly within the framework of plausibility — combined with numerous, historically accurate scenes of what actually did happen.

Based on the true story from years of research by the author.
