by Julio Godínez (Author)

La desconocida y valiente historia de uno de los pocos mexicanos capturados por los Nazis.

Weimar, 1944. En pleno corazón de Alemania se alza uno de los campos de concentración más grandes del régimen nazi, Buchenwald, un lugar insólito que tiene fama no solo de ser uno de los más mortales sino de albergar un enorme zoológico atendido por los mismos prisioneros.

Cuando José Luis Salazar, un experto en armas, es capturado y trasladado hasta ahí, les asegura a sus captores que es mexicano, por lo que le cosen una pequeña letra M en el uniforme. Sin embargo, para sorpresa de todos, a los pocos días llega al campo otro joven, un estudiante de electrónica llamado Juan Rodrigo del Fierro, que también dice ser mexicano.

Esta coincidencia despierta las sospechas de los oficiales nazis, quienes han oído un creciente rumor sobre un intercambio de prisioneros entre el gobierno de México y el alemán. Bajo la constante vigilancia de los oficiales, el tiempo corre en contra de los mexicanos , pues solo uno dice la verdad y el engaño puede costarles la vida a ambos, así que juntos deciden escapar y se enrolan en el plan de un grupo de reos que organiza un levantamiento dentro del campo.

Julio Godínez se basa en una increíble historia real de supervivencia para traernos una novela sobre el Holocausto como ninguna otra, un caso extraordinario en el que ser mexicano significó la diferencia entre la vida y la muerte. Un potente llamado a la esperanza y la lucha.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Weimar, 1944. In the heart of Germany, one of the largest concentration camps of the Nazi regime, Buchenwald, stands--an unusual place known not only for being one of the deadliest but also for housing a large zoo cared for by the prisoners themselves.

When José Luis Salazar, a weapons expert, is captured and transferred there, he assures his captors that he is Mexican, so they sew a small letter "M" onto his uniform. However, to everyone's surprise, a few days later, another young man arrives at the camp--a student of electronics named Juan Rodrigo del Fierro, who also claims to be Mexican.

This coincidence raises suspicions among the Nazi officers, who have heard growing rumors about a prisoner exchange between the Mexican and German governments. Under the constant watch of the officers, time is running out for "the Mexicans", as only one of them is telling the truth, and deception could cost them both their lives. Together, they decide to escape, joining a group of inmates planning an uprising inside the camp.

Julio Godínez draws from an incredible true story of survival to bring us a Holocaust novel unlike any other, an extraordinary case in which being Mexican meant the difference between life and death. A powerful call to hope and resistance.
