SHADOW ON THE MOUNTAIN
PREUS, MARGI
Shadow on the Mountain recounts the adventures of a 14-year-old Norwegian boy named Espen during World
War II. After Nazi Germany invades and occupies Norway, Espen and his friends are swept up in the Norwegian
resistance movement. Espen gets his start by delivering illegal newspapers, then graduates to the role of courier
and finally becomes a spy, dodging the Gestapo along the way. During five years under the Nazi regime, he
gains—and loses—friends, falls in love, and makes one small mistake that threatens to catch up with him as he
sets out to escape on skis over the mountains to Sweden.
