In 1948, as civil war ravaged Greece, children were abducted and sent to co mmunist "camps" inside the Iron Curtain. Eleni Gatzoyiannis, forty-one, def ied the traditions of her small village and the terror of the communist ins urgents to arrange for the escape of her three daughters and her son, Nicol a. For that act, she was imprisoned, tortured, and executed in cold blood. Nicholas Gage joined his father in Massachusetts at the age of nine and gre w up to become a top New York Times investigative reporter, honing his skil ls with one thought in mind: to return to Greece and uncover the one story he cared about most: the story of his mother. Eleni takes you into the heart a village destroyed in the name of ideals and into the soul of a truly heroic woman.
