"Nineteen-year-old Tommy Dick is killed, only to resurface. Born into a Hungarian family who had converted to Judaism, Tommy soon finds out that in the eyes of the Nazis, he's still a Jew, still a target for murder. On the run and in disguise, Tommy is chased by death as much as he is by luck. 'Getting Out Alive' is a vivid and gripping account of how the courageous acts of others, unshakeable friendships and Tommy's own extraordinary quick-wit conspired to save the life of an adventurous and determined young man in the cruelist of times."--Publ. website.
