Set in Norway during World War II, this book tells the story of a group of children who courageously help their country by smuggling their town’s gold reserve past Nazis who have recently invaded. The suspense and excitement of this story carries the reader through, while the character’s actions wonderfully illustrate virtues of patriotism, courage, perseverance, and hope.
