"509 is a political prisoner in a German concentration camp during the closing months of World War Two. As the allies come closer to liberating the camp, 509 must inspire his fellow inmates to not give up hope. For 509 it is not just a question of staying alive, but of staying human. This is a wonderful book about the triumph of the human spirit."
