Description: The second novel in Joseph O’Connor’s proposed trilogy bristles with life. AudioFile Editor Robin Whitten and host Jo Reed discuss how superb performances from a talented cast reveal the thoughts and emotions of a group of righteous men and women who saved hundreds from Nazi brutality. An escape line called “The Choir” operates within Vatican walls. The group faces constant danger. The narrators portray ordinary people doing extraordinary things. O’Connor’s prose is lyrical, and each person’s story feels authentic. Stunning listening.
