Inhaltsangabe

On 10th May 1940, Nazi Germany invaded the Netherlands. After five days of bitter fighting the Dutch surrendered on the same day that the city of Rotterdam was reduced to rubble. FIVE DAYS IN MAY is a World War II escape story following the escapades of three resilient Dutchmen (Dirk, Kobus and Smit) who tried in vain to defend their nation against the Nazi invasion, and then spent years fighting back against the increasingly oppressive regime. Five dark years of Nazi occupation resulted in slavery, starvation and torture for hundreds of thousands of Dutch citizens. This unprecedented level of suffering resulted in a giant wave of fear and anger that swept over the Dutch people as Dirk, Kobus and Smit navigated their own personal journeys in pursuit of survival and resistance. Against the historical backdrop of the Dutch capitulation and occupation, the main focus of the story is on the three daring personal journeys undertaken. The stakes are high as the three Dutchmen gradually become embroiled in dangerous covert operations with the Dutch resistance and the RAF. Although this is a fictional story, it is based on a solid framework of true events. FIVE DAYS IN MAY is a gripping tale of escape, betrayal and revenge.
