The Paris Architect
Like most gentiles in
Nazi-occupied Paris, architect Lucien Bernard has little empathy for the
Jews. So when a wealthy industrialist offers him a large sum of money
to devise secret hiding places for Jews, Lucien struggles with the
choice of risking his life for a cause he doesn't really believe in.
Ultimately he can't resist the challenge and begins designing expertly
concealed hiding spaces—behind a painting, within a column, or inside a
drainpipe—detecting possibilities invisible to the average eye. But when
one of his clever hiding spaces fails horribly and the immense
suffering of Jews becomes incredibly personal, he can no longer deny
reality.
