Plot

Casper ten Boom, an old Dutch watchmaker, and his two daughters, Corrie and Betsie, become the center of a major underground operation: to hide Jewish refugees from the occupying Germans. They break all the rules to save the lives of men, women, and children being hunted by the Nazis. The cost of their bravery is betrayal, and they end up in the dreaded Ravensbruck concentration camp. Nevertheless, they continue their efforts to save those around them... Corrie ten Boom's dramatic life story, full of timeless virtues, has prepared readers to face their own futures with faith, relying on God's love to overcome, heal, and restore. "The Hiding Place" tells the riveting story of how this middle-aged, Christian, Dutch woman, a watchmaker, became a heroine of the Resistance, a survivor of Hitler's death camps, and one of the most remarkable evangelists of the twentieth century.
