Summary
 The government had decided their baby should not be born. They decided to run.In communist Hungary, Louis and Elizabeth Németh had already lost control of nearly everythingtheir property, their careers, their home, and the freedom to direct their own lives. Then the state intruded into the most personal decision a family could face: Elizabeth was expected to report for an abortion because their government-assigned room was considered too small for another child.Their answer came at two oclock in the morning.Carrying two-year-old Lou and protecting the unborn son they refused to surrender, the young couple fled Budapest during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Their escape took them through frozen fields, past armed patrols, attack dogs, land mines, barbed wire, and a cleared kill zone where border guards could shoot anyone attempting to leave.On the other side of the wire lay freedombut no home, no money, and no certainty about what would happen next.Drawn from Louis Németh Sr.s own memoir and the memories of the sons he saved, Under the Wire is the unforgettable true story of one familys courage, sacrifice, and journey from communist oppression to opportunity in America. It is a story of parents determined to protect their children, of survival against extraordinary odds, and of the freedom that made a new life possible.It is also a warning: freedom can be lost one decision at a timeand preserving it may demand everything.©2026 Lou Nemeth (P)2026 Lou Nemeth
