Description & Specifications

Just a few years after World War II, a plane takes off from the United States heading to Europe. Each person aboard carries their own story, intertwined—without knowing it—with that of their neighbor.

Five lives unfold before our eyes like the thread from a spool: an elderly Jewish couple who were hunted down and lost their children in German concentration camps; a German Nazi who spread death and terror without remorse; a beautiful Italian woman who fell in love but ultimately experienced disillusionment; an American soldier who, returning from the Korean War, lost his memory and his soul; and a young Greek sailor who fought bravely. All of them—victims and perpetrators alike—will find themselves flying over the sea, in a plane that is about to crash at any moment...

The world's clock strikes midnight... The heroes of the book, everyday people with pure ideals, overflowing with humanity and love, know firsthand violence, hatred, and crime. Their journey resembles an eternal sacrifice at the altar of the freedom of peoples and love.
