The New York Times Bestseller A beautiful and elegant account of an ordinary man\'s unexpected and reluctant descent into heroism during the second world war.
Written by an Architect whose knowledge imbues every page, this story becomes more gripping with every soul hidden and every life saved..
The Paris Architect asks us to consider what we owe each other, and just how far we\'ll go to make things right.
But when one of his hiding spaces fails horribly, and the problem of where to hide a Jew becomes terribly personal, Lucien can no longer ignore what\'s at stake.
He sorely needs the money, and outwitting the Nazis who have occupied his beloved city is a challenge he can\'t resist.
All he has to do is design a secret hiding place for a wealthy Jewish man, a space so invisible that even the most determined German officer won\'t find it.
But if he\'s clever enough, he\'ll avoid any trouble. (Booklist) In 1942 Paris, gifted Architect Lucien Bernard accepts a commission that will bring him a great deal of money - and maybe get him killed. --Malcolm Gladwell An extraordinary novel about a gifted Architect who reluctantly begins a secret life devising ingenious hiding places for Jews in World War II Paris, from an author who\'s been called an up and coming Ken Follett.
