Just when it seems that all hope is gone, he is saved by a simple maid with a big heart. Surviving the war, the boy embarks on a path to pay her back for her love and grace. His quest will lead him to riches far beyond and far more satisfying than he ever imagined. BASED ON A TRUE STORY, with an appendix including authentic documents.
