From the author of the classics Brighton Rock and The Power and the Glory, a morally complex tale about a man at the mercy of deadly forces while being held in a German prison camp during World War II. Featuring an introduction by the author and two other story ideas from his archives. When Jean-Louis Chauvel, a French lawyer incarcerated in a German prison camp, is informed by his captors that three prisoners must die, he devises a plan for survival. Offering everything he owns to a fellow prisoner if he will take Chauvel's place, he manages to escape the firing squad but soon discovers that he will continue to pay for this act for the rest of his life. An unforgettable and suspenseful novel that "deserves a place at the top of the list of world's best literature inspired by the war" (Houston Chronicle), The Tenth Man will haunt you long after you turn the final page.
