Overview

Another year has dragged by, the German occupation since the failed 1943 Jewish Ghetto uprising in Warsaw was still as strong as ever. The Polish resistance alongside the Polish Home Army commanded by Bor Komorowski decided to launch a surprise attack on the German occupiers. On August 1st 1944 an Home Army of some 45,000 poles including civilians and resistance launched a planned attack on the Nazis to take back the Old Town District. This action resulted in the massacre of almost every living, man, woman and child in the most horrendous and brutal ways possible. Hitler wanted to chow the rest of Europe the consequences of making a stand against the Third Reich. The city of Warsaw was razed to the ground in retaliation. A novel of fiction loosely based on facts of betrayal, murder and in house fighting by all factions concerned forced Tomas Budzyn to lead his resistance unit away from the Home Army, to fight their own war, bringing their dark story out into the light.
