El niño en la cima de la montaña
(Book)

When Pierrot becomes an orphan, he must leave his home in Paris for a new life with his aunt Beatrix, a servant in a wealthy Austrian household. This is no ordinary home nor an ordinary time; it is 1935, in the home of Adolf Hitler. Pierrot is quickly taken under Hitler's wing and thrown into an increasingly dangerous new world.

Of German father and French mother, Pierrot has had a childhood not very different from the one of any child of its time. However, we are in Paris, runs the year 1935 and the war that lies ahead will disrupt the fate of millions of people. After the premature death of his parents, Pierrot must separate from his close friend Anshel and leave France to live with his Aunt Beatrix, who works as a housekeeper in an imposing mansion erected on top of a mountain. But it is not just any house; Is no less than the Berghof, the huge residence that Adolf Hitler has in the Bavarian Alps. Thus, at his seven years, involuntarily housed in the intimate surroundings of the all-powerful F,rer, Pierrot will be immersed in a world so strangely seductive as dangerous. In him there is no place for innocence, and when the end of the war is captured by the allies, Pieter - as it is now called - will carry an unbearable weight in his conscience. Upon his return to Paris, overwhelmed by guilt, a key aspect of history will emerge as a lifeline, and the unexpected outcome will be yet another sign of the unfathomable dimension of forgiveness and friendship. -- Publisher's website.
