Review
"I can think of no non-Belgian better qualified than Professor Dennis Turner to write a book telling a story happening in my country...
History is like a mosaic, and Dennis Turner's work is both a beautiful and an important stone of that mosaic." --
Ambassador Jean-Michel Veranneman de Watervliet,
author of Belgium in the Second World War.\n"A powerful story of seldom-sung heroines in humanity's darkest days and a vivid reminder of the power of conscience. Using first-hand accounts, Turner crafts an inspiring narrative of courage and sacrifice in the face of terror." -- Edgardo David Holzman, author of
Malena. \n"I know from first-hand experience that Dennis Turner is a meticulous and thoughtful law professor. I called on him several times for advice when I served as the Provost of the University of Dayton. I am delighted that he has decided to write this story inspired by sisters of Notre Dame who, with holy delight, foiled the Nazis. It is a generous recounting of the deeds of marvelous nuns living in the midst of mortal danger. It is also a great read!" -- Father James Heft SM
