Long Night Coming takes place during the years immediately preceding the beginning of World War II. Set in Germany and Austria, the story follows the terrible consequences of Hitler's vicious and destructive policies against the Jews and how they affect the Jewish family of Rudi Bachmann, a university professor, his wife Rebecca and their young daughter Deborah who live in Munich. The story emphasizes the enormous strength and will which may be created by the bond of love between a husband and his wife. Fighting against the forces of the Nazi Third Reich in the person of SS Major Heinrich Stohlfuss of the Jewish Emigration Office, Rebecca calls on strengths she did not know she possessed in order to effect the release of her husband from captivity in the notorious concentration camp at Dachau, near Munich, Germany. Rebecca strives to overcome her natural dread and fear while working to plan and execute daring and dangerous plots to keep her family together - she has been forced to take up residence with her sister and brother-in-law and their family - and to attempt to free Rudi from the terrible grip of the Deathshead SS who control the concentration camp at Dachau. The intense and relentless pursuit of the family by Major Stohlfuss forces them to flee Germany with the Nazis on alert to capture them at any cost. In Salzburg, Austria the fight continues and is forced to a final collision of wills and physical endurance as the Nazi SS officer battles Rebecca and Rudi in an underground confrontation which will spell victory or defeat and death for one of them. This exciting climax is marked by a rollercoaster of physical and mental emotions which presage the dark world of the holocaust yet to come.
