During WWII in Russia, A teenager and a army deserter who've commited small crimes face execution. They are spared at the last minute by an army captain on the condition that they obtain 12 eggs for his daugher's wedding cake. Thus they set on a perilous adventure. This covers is structured beautifully - the huge type is actually rather thin in weight, which keeps it from heavy-ing up the top area.

There's a pleasant surprise inside the flap too. This guy gets my vote for hottest author of the year.
And here he is with his wife, actress Amanda Peet:
