The Nazis have invaded Poland, and a Catholic nanny is trying to get a Jewish boy to Israel. She promised his mother she would, as his mother lay dying. His father is in France and cut off from his family.
The biographer brilliantly weaves in the stories of other people with whom they come in contact; an SS officer for instance, who saves the child by helping him hide his Jewish identity.
The nanny and the boy end up on the refugee ship Exodus as they try to break into Israel's waters past the British blockade. This is an amazing story, compelling and ultimately triumphant.
