"This is the powerful new novel from the bestselling author of THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS. When Pierrot becomes an orphan, he must leave his home in Paris for a new life with his Aunt Beatrix, a servant in a wealthy household at the top of the German mountains. It is 1935 and the Second World War is approaching; and this is no ordinary house, for this is the Berghof, the home of Adolf Hitler. ."
