Grzegorz Tomaszeski is not built for battle. A naïve and loving teenager, he wants only to prove himself to his father, Stefan. Entirely unprepared for the horror that awaits, Grzegorz heads to Danzig with Stefan to defend the city at the outbreak of war, only to face tragedy before the day is out.

Like his sister Kasia, life is set only to get tougher for Grzegorz, and the devastating battle at Danzig is just the beginning of his wartime anguish. He makes firm friends with Konrad, a brave man more suited to the challenges conflict brings, and together they eventually flee Poland and make their way through Europe, in the hope their lives can be spared, as so many of their fellow countrymen brutally lose theirs.
