From inside the Vatican, Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty makes a daring attempt to smuggle thousands of innocents out of Nazi-occupied Rome in this World War II “literary thriller of the highest order” (The Guardian), the first in a series by New York Times bestselling author, Joseph O’Connor.
September 1943: German forces have Rome under their control. SS Commander Paul Hauptmann rules over the Eternal City with vicious efficiency. The war’s outcome is far from certain. Diplomats, refugees, Jews, and escaped Allied prisoners flee for protection into Vatican City, a neutral, independent state nestled in the city of Rome. A small band of unlikely friends led by a courageous Irish priest is drawn into deadly battle of wits with Hauptmann and his soldiers.
Suspenseful, beautifully written, and inspired by a true story, My Father’s House tells an unforgettable story of love, faith, sacrifice, and courage.
*The second book in the Rome Escape Line Trilogy, The Ghosts of Rome, is available now.*
