of Mark T. Sullivan (Goodreads Author)
Description
Based on the true story of a forgotten hero, Beneath a Scarlet Sky is the triumphant, epic tale of one young manâs incredible courage and resilience during one of historyâs darkest hours. Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. Heâs a normal Italian teenagerâobsessed with music, food, and girlsâbut his days of innocence are numbered. 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.In an attempt to protect him, Pinoâs parents force him to enlist as a German soldierâa move they think will keep him out of combat. But after Pino is injured, he is recruited at the tender age of eighteen to become the personal driver for Adolf Hitlerâs left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reichâs most mysterious and powerful commanders.Now, with the opportunity to spy for the Allies inside the German High Command, Pino endures the horrors of the war and the Nazi occupation by fighting in secret, his courage bolstered by his love for Anna and for the life he dreams they will one day share.Fans of All the Light We Cannot See, The Nightingale, and Unbroken will enjoy this riveting saga of history, suspense, and love.
