The remarkable story of a group of brave Catholic sisters who resisted the Nazi regime. Throughout the occupied territories, Catholic Sisters were active members of the Nazi Resistance. Based on letters and documents written by Catholic nuns during the Nazi occupation of Belgium, this book tells the remarkable story of these brave and faithful women, and how they served to resist the German forces. From running contraband to hiding Jews, from spying for the allies to small acts of sabotage, these courageous women risked their lives to help defeat the Reich.
