Description:This book belongs, in the words of Henning Mankell, 'in the shadowy world where history and imagination merge'... It was a sunny Saturday lunchtime in June 1944. Most of the inhabitants of a sleepy village situated in the 'Free Zone' of war-ravaged France were sitting down to a leisurely meal. Without warning, an attachment of Das Reich soldiers (the elite force of the Nazi's Waffen-SS division) arrived. Hours later, 642 defenceless people had been massacred; their homes were smouldering ruins. From these embers emerged true, life-affirming stories of survival as individuals defied machine-guns, snipers, explosives and burning buildings to escape the clutches of the deadly wolf's hook. Aimed at 12+ readers, Wolf's Hook is a factionalised account of the Das Reich attack on an innocent village. It recaptures the essence of what happened that day, using four first-person narrative strands: a waiter, a young boy, an SS soldier and a grandmother. Through their eyes we see the terrifying day unravel. (!!Author's warning: for 12+; this is the same book and text as Murder to Music but with a different cover!!)We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
