具体描述
Based on the true story of a forgotten hero, Beneath a Scarlet Sky is the triumphant, epic tale of one young man’s incredible courage and resilience during one of history’s darkest hours.
Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He’s a normal Italian teenager—obsessed with music, food, and girls—but his days of innocence are numbered. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior.
In an attempt to protect him, Pino’s parents force him to enlist as a German soldier—a move they think will keep him out of combat. But after Pino is injured, he is recruited at the tender age of eighteen to become the personal driver for Adolf Hitler’s left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reich’s most mysterious and powerful commanders.
Now, with the opportunity to spy for the Allies inside the German High Command, Pino endures the horrors of the war and the Nazi occupation by fighting in secret, his courage bolstered by his love for Anna and for the life he dreams they will one day share.
Fans of All the Light We Cannot See, The Nightingale, and Unbroken will enjoy this riveting saga of history, suspense, and love.

##别的没啥说的 为啥英文小说就他娘非得英文评价 跟写微博似的两三行 了不得了
评分##故事是个好故事，战后的部分大概是写的最好的部分了。五星给pino，被作者的文笔扣掉1星
评分##"life is change, life is constant change"
评分##这两年二战题材很火，但是就还好。
评分##真人真事改编，经历传奇到不可思议。上午刚刚嘲讽书里德国将军单纯，谍战小儿科，晚上看完就打脸，主角和将军永远分别前最后一句话反转了整个故事，唏嘘不已
评分##作者说是根据Pino的人生写得，怎么会那么巧合跟Anna重遇。跟德国军官父子般的相处，太神奇了，难以相信是真的。关于二战的小说真的都挺好看的，在动荡的历史中，每个活下来的人都有不凡的经历，都值得写成故事。
评分##"life is change, life is constant change"
评分##前后写的比较好，中间Pino做间谍的部分着墨很少，他究竟贡献了什么了不起的情报？为什么拿到手提箱钥匙之后一直没有打开？Pino的个性倒一直挺统一的，只能在背后搞反动，当面起冲突时总是懦弱。General Leyer究竟是什么身份，为什么会知道Pino代号呢？可能这就是纪实文学吧。
评分##亚马逊根据我看过的其他几本二战小说推荐的，但是这本是最差了。可能是为了要尽可能按照事实来写，情节总是难以达到高潮。很多情节对推动小说进展没什么帮助。但是主角总能阴差阳错见到至亲的人在自己面前死去，感觉又是不真实，像是小说刻意为之。结尾也有些仓促，还好后记写的不错。整体比较失望。
