Soon to be a major televi- sion event from Pascal Pic- tures, starring Tom Holland, the book is based on the true story of one young man’s incredible courage and resil- ience during one of history’s darkest hours. Pino Lella (the father of Michael) wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He’s a normal Italian teenager—obsessed with music, food, and girls—but 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, Pino’s parents force him to enlist as a German soldier—a 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 Hitler’s left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reich’s 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. Michael’s presentation included a 40-minute Power- Point with over fifty photograph and he spoke of his father’s courage and epic struggle during the last two years of WWII. April 2020 15
