Confronted by the painful memories of his past he discovers he is the sole heir to a hidden fortune. Miguel de la Mar, at age twenty-one, finds himself a most unusual papal surrogate. He leads a handful of priests in pursuit of Axis plans to enslave mankind. Across Europe the Jewish people are relentlessly subjected to the Third Reichs Final Solution. Has God forsaken them? Who will aid them in this time of peril? History provides a unique perspective on the complex relationship between Pope Pius XII and the Jewish struggle to survive. A Man Before God examines the people, places, and events that lie at the heart of todays unresolved moral questions.
