About the Book

Uno de los autores españoles más traducidos y leídos en Estados Unidos y en otros catorce países.

Más de 300.000 ejemplares vendidos.

Esta narración impecablemente documentada nos cuenta la increíble historia de una mujer dispuesta a sacar la verdad a la luz. Una novela basada en hechos reales que recupera uno de los más conmovedores testimonios de humanidad y altruismo.

Esta es la apasionante historia de una mujer, Valérie Portheret, que descubrió en un archivo olvidado los nombres de ciento ocho niños y dedicó el resto de su vida a devolverles la identidad.

Una joven decidida a mostrar la verdad.

Lyon, 1992. Una estudiante tiene que enfrentarse a un país y a una universidad que quieren pasar página y dejar atrás el pasado, pero el hallazgo de una vieja caja con las fichas de unos niños judíos, en paradero desconocido desde el verano de 1942, la anima a indagar en el pasado de su ciudad y a rescatar del olvido a un puñado de héroes anónimos.

Un grupo de personas corrientes dispuestas a arriesgarlo todo.

Lyon, 1942. Los nazis han aprobado la «solución final» y empiezan las deportaciones masivas de cientos de miles de judíos provenientes de los países ocupados, entre ellos, Francia. Klaus Barbie, un cruel funcionario de las SS, ha recibido la orden de expulsar a todos los judíos de la región, pero un grupo de hombres y mujeres intentará, en una endiablada carrera contrarreloj, salvar a los más pequeños antes de que sea demasiado tarde.

Más de un centenar de niños perdidos a quienes devolver sus vidas.

Mientras por las calles de Lyon corre un pasquín con el lema «No os llevaréis a los niños», varios miembros de asociaciones humanitarias buscan la forma de salvar a todos los menores de dieciséis años de los campos de concentración alemanes. Un pueblo unido para salvaguardar su dignidad y demostrar así al mundo que, incluso en sus horas más oscuras, el bien puede vencer al mal.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

One of the most translated and read Spanish authors in the United States and in fourteen other countries.

More than 300,000 copies were sold.

This impeccably researched narrative tells the incredible story of a woman determined to bring the truth to light. A novel based on true events that recovers one of the most moving testimonies of humanity and altruism.

This is the exciting story of a woman, Valérie Portheret, who discovered the names of one hundred and eight children in a forgotten archive and dedicated the rest of her life to restoring their identity.

Lyon, 1992. A student must stand against a country and a university that want to leave the past behind, but the discovery of an old box with the files of many Jewish children, whose whereabouts have been unknown since the summer of 1942, encourages her to investigate the past of her city and rescue a handful of anonymous heroes from oblivion.

Lyon, 1942. The Nazis approved the "Final Solution" and the massive deportations of hundreds of thousands of Jews from the occupied countries, including France, begin. Klaus Barbie, a cruel SS official, has been ordered to expel all the Jews from the region, but a group of men and women will try, in a devilish race against time, to save the little ones before it is too late.

More than a hundred lost children to give back their lives.

While "You will not take the children" is written in flyers circulating the streets of Lyon, several members of humanitarian associations seek a way to save all children under sixteen from the German concentration camps. A people united to safeguard their dignity and thus demonstrate to the world that, even in its darkest hours, good can defeat evil.
