520 2  "When American physician Sumner Jackson, who lived with 
       his wife and young son Phillip at Number 11, Avenue de 
       Foch, found himself drawn into the Liberation network of 
       the French resistance, he knew the stakes were impossibly 
       high. From his office at the American Hospital, itself an 
       epicenter of Allied and Axis intrigue, Jackson smuggled 
       fallen Allied fighter pilots safely out of France, a job 
       complicated by the hospital director's close ties to 
       collaborationist Vichy. After witnessing the brutal round-
       up of his Jewish friends, Jackson invited Liberation to 
       officially operate out of his home at Number 11. When his 
       secret life was discovered by his Nazi neighbors, he and 
       his family were forced to undertake a journey into the 
       dark heart of the war-torn continent from which there was 
       little chance of return. Awash with the tense atmosphere 
       of World War II's Europe, Avenue of Spies introduces us to
       the brave doctor who risked everything to defy Hitler"--
