As the Nazi madness swept across Europe, a quiet watchmaker's family in Holland risked everything for the sake of others, and for the love of Christ. Despite the danger and threat of discovery, they courageously offered shelter to persecuted Jews.

Then a trap brought about the family's arrest. Could God's love shine through, even in Ravensbrück?

The Hiding Place is a story of faith and courage in the face of grave danger and adversity.
