How can one man save the lives of thousands from total destruction?
Budapest, 1944. When the Nazis invade Hungary, the leaders of the local Jewish community trust that the Hungarian government will protect them from deportation. But Miklós Kraus, a young Jewish activist living in Budapest, isn’t convinced. After reading a shocking report exposing the atrocities taking place at the Auschwitz concentration camp, Kraus is determined to do everything he can to save as many Jews as possible from certain death.
Using his cunning and connections with the Swiss consulate, Kraus concocts a plan that could save thousands of Jewish families. After the Nazis invade his homeland, he secures an old glass factory, dubbed “the Glass House,” which becomes a safe haven from the violence raging on the streets of Budapest.
As the Nazis become increasingly desperate to expedite their plans and the threat of mass annihilation looms over his daring operation, Kraus will have to risk more than he ever imagined to save his people.
The Keeper of the Glass House is the moving and captivating story of how one man saved the lives of many, based on the inspiring untold true story of Miklós (Moshe) Krausz.
