520    "Inspired by a true story, a daring deception plunges a 
       courageous and desperate young woman deep into the horrors
       of a Nazi POW camp to be with the man she loves. 
       Czechoslovakia, 1944 In the dead of night a farm girl and 
       a British soldier creep through abandoned villages. 
       Izabela and prisoner-of-war Bill have secretly married, 
       and are on the run, searching for Izabela's brother and 
       father, who are fighting the Nazis. The husband and wife 
       have evaded capture in the countryside for a week, but 
       when their luck runs out, they are delivered into the 
       hands of the occupying enemy. But they have prepared for 
       this moment, disguising Izabela as a man. The pair are 
       transported to a POW camp and faced with living conditions
       far worse than those experienced by any animal on 
       Izabela's farm. They will need the help of their fellow 
       POWs to maintain their deception, and the gravity of the 
       situation becomes chillingly apparent; if they are 
       discovered, Izabela will have put not just herself and 
       Bill in great danger, but also all the men around them. 
       The Prisoner's Wife tells of an incredible risk, and how 
       our deepest bonds are tested in desperate times. Bill and 
       Izabela's is a story of love and survival, against the 
       darkest odds"--Provided by publisher.
