Evil descends in one night.
Who will be crushed in its grip?
It ’s November 9, 1938 Kristal Nacht, the “Night of Breaking Glass. ” As Hitler ’s minions blaze through Berlin, arresting Jews, burning homes, shops, and synagogues, Pastor Karl Ibsen races to aid the Kalners, a Jewish family in his congregation. But will he be too late? And what price will his wife, Helen, and children, Lori and Jamie, pay for his actions?
As Berlin burns, Karl ’s family waits in New Church for the Nazis to come. The Wallich family hides in a nearby apartment. Lucy Strasburg, girlfriend of a Nazi officer, watches with horror, realizing what the “glory of the Reich ” really means . . . and wondering what, if anything, she can do.
For all, there is only one hope —the Danzig Passage. A narrow corridor to hope and freedom.
