But after Pino is injured, he is recruited at the tender age of eighteen to become the personal driver for Adolf Hitler’s left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reich’s most mysterious and powerful commanders. In an attempt to protect him, Pino’s parents force him to enlist as a German soldier-a move they think will keep him out of combat. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior. He’s a normal Italian teenager-obsessed with music, food, and girls-but his days of innocence are numbered.
Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis.
