Reviews
"Filled with secret missions, Nazi villains, and daring escapes that actually happened...Andy Hodges is a real hero whose story must never be forgotten."--Eric Metaxas, New York Times bestselling author of Miracles and Bonhoeffer "One of the most intriguing books I have read on WWII...Captivating and nearly impossible to put down. I recommend it with enthusiasm to professional historians, history buffs, and anyone who wants to be inspired and entertained."--Lyle W. Dorsett, author of Serving God and Country "What a page-turner! It reads like a good novel, but it is all true."--Private First Class Bernard Rader, K Company, 301st Regiment, 94th Division "Fascinating...Andy's story is one of great courage, risks, sacrifice, and commitment to a transcendent cause."--Lt. Gen. William "Jerry" Boykin, former commander U.S. Army's Delta Force

Synopsis
"Riveting and action-packed... Behind Nazi Lines ] shows how one brave American Red Cross volunteer negotiated the release of 149 Allied POWs. A great read."--Marcus Brotherton, author of Shifty's War In 1944, hundreds of Allied soldiers were trapped in the prisoner-of-war camps off the Atlantic coast of occupied France. Miraculously, local villagers smuggled a message from the camp to the Allied forces--sparking a remarkable quest by an unlikely hero. Excluded from military service due to a football injury, Andy Hodges joined the Red Cross and, in the fall of 1944, was tapped for what sounded like a suicide mission: a desperate attempt to aid the Allied POWs in Nazi-occupied France. But Andy did far more than deliver much-needed supplies. By the end of the year, he had negotiated the release of an unprecedented 149 prisoners--leaving no one behind. This is the true story of one man's selflessness, ingenuity, and victory in the face of impossible adversity. INCLUDES PHOTOS, Told by his own son, this is the riveting story of an Allied soldier who risked his life to save 149 prisoners-of-war. In 1944, hundreds of Allied soldiers were trapped in the prisoner-of-war camps off the Atlantic coast of occupied France. Red Cross volunteer Andy Hodges was tapped for what sounded like a suicide mission to bring aide to the POWs - alone and unarmed, matching his wits against the Nazi war machine. This is the true story of one man's selflessness, ingenuity and victory in the face of impossible adversity.
