(3) YA Awaiting execution in a Nazi prison, teenager Helmuth Hübener recalls the events leading to his treason conviction. The novel's historical elements are its strongest feature; an author's note gives more information about the real Helmuth. The appended photographs of Helmuth and his friends and family in addition to his prison cell and a poster announcing his execution are painfully affecting. Timeline. Bib.
