1944. Paul Brandt, a German soldier, returns wounded and ashamed from the chaos of the Eastern front to find his village home existing in the dark shadow of an SS rest hut - a luxurious retreat for those who manage the concentration camps, run with the help of a small group of female prisoners._x000D_
When Brandt glimpses one of these prisoners, he realises that he must find a way to access the hut. For inside is the woman to whom his fate has been tied since their arrest five years before, and now he must do all he can to protect her._x000D_
But as the Russian offensive moves ever closer, the days of this rest hut and its SS inhabitants are numbered. And while hope grows tantalizingly close, the danger too is now greater than ever.
