From the New York Times bestselling and National Jewish Book Award–winning author: a gripping novel of foreboding, betrayal, heroism, and hope set in World War II Budapest.
ABOUT
By the end of 1943, nearly all of Europe’s Jewish population had fled, been deported, captured, or killed by Hitler.
Only Hungary, and its almost 900,000 Jews, remained free from Hitler’s subjugation.
They lived under government edicts and restrictions but without fear of harm.
That changed in March 1944, after the Nazi defeat at Stalingrad, as an avaricious Hitler conquered Hungary and declared his plan for mass extermination of the Jewish people.
With the notorious Adolf Eichmann supervising the process, Nazis began rounding up Hungary’s Jewish population.
In this dramatic new novel, The Righteous, Theresa Weissbach, a professor at the University of Michigan, hasn’t heard from her parents in Budapest for over a year.Authentic, suspenseful, and deeply moving, The Righteous continues Ronald H. Balson’s fictional exploration of World War II and the heroic actions of those who resisted Hitler’s Master Plan.
