Set in Paris during World War 2, the story explores how far one human will go to save another human. Lucien is an architect who is offered a nice commission by the German's to design factories for them. At the same time, Lucien is approached by a well-to-do Frenchman requesting hiding places to be designed for Jews. This offer also comes with a lot of money. Lucien accepts both jobs and is now hiding his secret from the German officer that he is quickly becoming a friend. The story reveals unexpected plots and unlikely friendships and shows how far the human spirit will go to do the right thing.
I really enjoyed this story. I thought it was well written and the plot kept moving really well. It was a nice look at the war from a different country's view.
