La segunda guerra mundial fue una guerra entre Alemania y la Unión Sovietica, quien puso la sangre mientras el resto de los aliados colocaron el hierro. Este libro describe con toda la crudeza el terrible destino quienes quedaron entremedio de l conflicto, como los ucranianos, que de día debían soportar a las tropas alemanas y de noche a los partisanos rusos, como la historia narrada de una mujer cuyo esposo fue asesinado por los nazis y su hermano por los pro-sovieticos. Este libro es el guión de la serie de la BBC, así que es un relato bien hilvanado.
