520    "The Nine follows the true story of the author's great 
       aunt Helene Podliasky, who led a band of nine female 
       resistance fighters as they escaped a German forced labor 
       camp and made a ten-day journey across the front lines of 
       WWII from Germany back to Paris. The nine women were all 
       under thirty when they joined the resistance. They 
       smuggled arms through Europe, harbored parachuting agents,
       coordinated communications between regional sectors, 
       trekked escape routes to Spain and hid Jewish children in 
       scattered apartments. They were arrested by French police,
       interrogated and tortured by the Gestapo. They were 
       subjected to a series of French prisons and deported to 
       Germany. The group formed along the way, meeting at 
       different points, in prison, in transit, and at 
       Ravensbruck. By the time they were enslaved at the labor 
       camp in Leipzig, they were a close-knit group of friends. 
       During the final days of the war, forced onto a death 
       march, the nine chose their moment and made a daring 
       escape. Drawing on incredible research, this powerful, 
       heart-stopping narrative is a moving tribute to the power 
       of humanity and friendship in the darkest of times"--
