Why the author wrote this book:

This thriller has been fifteen years in the making and is a labor of love. Family and friends from the Netherlands lived through the Nazi invasion. We wanted to write a realistic portrayal of the heroes of the Dutch Resistance who managed to save countless Jewish lives, and of the U.S. Army group called The Monuments Men, who saved many priceless art works of Christendom. Federal Agent Eva Montanna's Grandpa Marty is orphaned and sails to live with his only living Aunt in the Netherlands. The very next day, Zeeland is attacked by Germany and Marty is caught behind enemy lines. Decades later he is targeted by an unknown enemy and Eva must search his secret past for clues. In her quest, she and her family uncover the true worth of their beloved grandfather as well as their true legacy.
