Stunning new historical account of Hitler's closest male advisor and a brave Hollander woman whose daring faith compels her to hide Jews in a secret room. With years of research into the diaries of the protagonists, Charles Causey's new moral thriller exposes chilling secrets of the Nazi's during the final weeks of the war and chronicles one Christian woman's journey to a death camp for resisting the Gestapo in Holland. Though the book reads like fiction and has been professionally reviewed as riveting, all characters exists in history, their words are their own, and every person is in the right place at the right time. It stands alone in a genre between biography and historical fiction.
A haunting tale of horror and courage "The Lion and the Lamb" begins with a mysterious plane crash which catapults architect Albert Speer into Adolf Hitler's inner circle of calculating men like Himmler, Goebbels and the unstable Hermann Göring.
