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.

##故事非常棒，可惜人物塑造稍微少了点细腻和丰满
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##整体还可以 剧情算吸引人读下去 但是很多地方简直太抓马了吧 主角简直是开挂好运气人生 好多桥段像作者天马行空想象出来的一样 不敢相信是纪实文学 但作为认真读完的第一本英文小说 值得纪念....
