- Summary:
- "From inside the hell of the Dachau concentration camp 'Priest Block,' Father Henri Kremer clings to fragile life and fading faith. But Gestapo officer Gebhardt, a young and ruthless lapsed seminarian, arranges a nine day reprieve for the priest. If Kremer can persuade his staunchly anti-Nazi Bishop to capitulate to Nazi occupation, he'll go free. But if he fails or tries to escape, certain death awaits. Torn between duty, faith, fear for his own life and for the lives of his loved ones, in just nine days, Kremer must find a way to ease his conscience, protect his family and uphold his vows."--Container.
