In 1944 their lives were forever altered when they were betrayed, arrested, and thrown into the infamous Nazi death camps. Only Corrie among her family survived. This is her incredible true story--and ultimately the story of how faith, hope, and forgiveness triumphed over unthinkable evil.

Now The Hiding Place , repackaged for a new generation of readers, continues to declare that God's love will overcome, heal, and restore. This 35th Anniversary Edition includes: ● Photos ● Timelines ● Ten Boom family resources ● Introduction by Brother Andrew
