Thirteen-year-old Pieter's growing role in the Dutch Resistance in occupied Holland is threatened by an unknown Nazi informer in his village. Is it his slow-witted cousin, Koos? His oily teacher, Mr. van der Meer? The town's drunken doctor? Though short on character development, this gripping adventure story is long on both tension and suspense.
