'A gripping novel and makes a fine addition to any library of World
War II fiction...the tension's often almost palpable' Historical
Novel Society A page-turning and heart-breaking historical novel
about the daring White Rose group who stood up to the Nazis and
paid the ultimate price. 'Fans of Anthony Doerr's All the Light We
Cannot See will fall under the spell of this powerfully moving
novel' Booklist 'Somebody, after all, had to make a start' Sophie
Scholl, leader of the White Rose, 21 February 1943 at her trial in
Munich. Munich, 1942 As war rages across Europe, a series of
anonymous leaflets, criticizing the brutal Nazi regime, appear on
the streets of Germany. Their message, written in secret, is a
daring act of defiance. Natalya Petrovich, a student, knows more
than she should. As a member of the secret resistance group, the
White Rose, Natalya is risking everything. But even among those she
trusts most, there is no guarantee of safety. The Gestapo are
everywhere and Natalya knows that falling into the hands of the
secret police means torture-and almost certain death. This is an
extraordinary novel of resilience and heroism during one of
history's darkest times. Praise for The Traitor 'This book was
amazing. I couldn't put it down... it's a great story about
resilience in the face of death and uncertainty. It's a look into
another piece of history that you may not know enough about. Most
importantly, it highlights the evil that plagued its time and how
people overcame it and fought against it' Danielle, NetGalley 'An
outstanding novel' Peter, Goodreads 'Kept me reading until wee
hours in the morning' Shirley, Goodreads 'Written with characters
who come alive to the reader' Jane, Goodreads 'A testimony to those
that fought, struggled and died to save their country' Leanna,
Goodreads 'Highly engaging... reading this novel gives some small
taste of what it might be like to make such difficult, potentially
life-threatening choices' Sarah-Hope, NetGalley 'This is one that I
will re-read again and again and pass on to my children' Meg,
