| Summary: | The title refers to the fires lit to guide pilots dropping Austrian and Allied parachutists to join groups of the Austrian Resistance. Molden describes the anti-Nazi resistance, employing documents, eyewitness reports, historical accounts, and his own experiences as a member of the Resistance. He develops a chain of evidence leading to the conclusion that the numbers and actions of both Austrian Nazis and Austrian Resistance fighters has been considerably underestimated.
