SYNOPSIS
During one of the darkest times in human history when millions of innocent Jews and others deemed “undesirables” were being sent to concentration camps to be brutality worked to death or slaughtered, a group of Dutch resistance workers rose up against the atrocities. Their resistance to the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands created a vast counterintelligence, domestic sabotage, and communications network to help hide Jewish people from German authorities. The Old Gilt Clock is the story of how one Dutch resistance member, Willem Arondéus, risked his life to defy the Nazis’ plans to identify and deport hundreds of thousands of Dutch Jews. Arondéus’ courage is largely forgotten by history, but not by the Jewish and Dutch people. Written by the award-winning international Amazon bestselling author of The Seven Year Dress, comes a story of Arondéus’ courageous struggle to stand up to the unimaginable evil designs of Hitler. It is also a story about friendships formed in the Dutch resistance movement, their joys and sorrows, their wins and losses, their loves and betrayals, and ultimately their resilience to oppose tyranny and oppression when millions stood silent condoning heinous behavior. Thousands are alive today because of these brave, compassionate men and women.

Ordering it for my Kindle. You’ve been busy again!
Did you know that my mother was involved in making radios for both French and Dutch resistance groups?
No, I didn’t know that. How interesting! I love it! Thank you so much for ordering it and helping a dog. I’m so excited to have you read it and hear your feedback. I think you’re doing to love Willem. ❤
Looks to be ever so interesting and of course the subject seemingly has all the elements of a page turner. Based on all of this lady’s previous which I’ve read and thoroughly enjoyed, this one also sounds like a real winner, that also has the makings of a Best Seller. Can’t wait to read this newest book of Paulette Mahurin’s, as its title, The Old Guilt Clock, and its period story arouses ones curiosity!
Thank you so much, JJ. I loved researching Willem Arondeus, a fascinating man. I think you will find him most interesting. I hope I’ve done him justice in my book. ❤
Congrats on another no-doubt terrific book!
Thank you so much. I hope I did justice to the very amazing and courageous Willem Arondeus. ❤
I have no doubt you made his spirit most proud.

CONGRATULATIONS PAULETTE. I look forward to reading this book. You know I am a HUGE fan.
Thank you so much. I’d love for you to read it. I remember that you shared something about him on facebook a while back. I haven’t forgotten. Arondeus was an amazing historical hero. ❤
I will see if i can get a copy of this one. The Danish resistance was also something special. We knew one of the leaders of that group of me. He was an exchange professor at my college and lived across the street from us.
I bet you heard some interesting stories from your neighbor. How fortunate to hear a piece of remarkable and brave history that must have been. I hope you and yours are well and have peaceful fun holidays. ❤️
The story is deeply touching. I could go on and on about the existence of a similar cabal which exist today. There time is short. They’ve tested their powers and are pondering. They will never get away with what they have done or to become a full nazi existence. I hope you are enjoying the season. Well wishes in all of your endeavors.
Hope you enjoy the holiday season as well.
💕❤️⭐️🤗
Looking forward to this Paulette!
Thank you so much, Colleen! ❤
You’re very welcome!
