Sobre este áudio
MICK HERRON
'This remarkable book reads like a novel . . . The narrative style is gripping; the morality searing. This is how the best history books will be written in the future'
ANDREW ROBERTS
'Excellent . . . both history and parable, perfect reading for this moment'
ANNE APPLEBAUM
'Thrilling, humane, and deeply moving . . . the best sort of history, one whose rich characters breathe life and perspective into our present circumstance. Haunting, and not to be missed'
DAVID McCLOSKEY
'The Traitors Circle rivals Freedland's superb The Escape Artist. Totally gripping and timely'
JONATHAN DIMBLEBY
'Haunting and heart-poundingly suspenseful . . . Freedland's powerful story-telling has intense resonance in today's darkening world'
SINCLAIR MCKAY
'As tense as a thriller yet perceptive, thoughtful and thoroughly researched'
KATJA HOYER
When the whole world is lying, someone must tell the truth.
Berlin, 1943. A group of high-society anti-Nazi dissenters meet for a tea party one late summer afternoon. They do not know that, sitting around the table, is someone poised to betray them all to the Gestapo - revealing their secret to the Nazis' most ruthless detective.
They form a circle of unlikely rebels, drawn from the German elite: two countesses, a diplomat, an intelligence officer, an ambassador's widow and a pioneering headmistress. Meeting in the shadows, rescuing Jews or plotting for a future Germany freed from the Führer's rule, what unites them is a shared loathing of the Nazis, a refusal to bow to Hitler and the courage to perform perilous acts of resistance. Or so they believe.
How did a group of brave, principled rebels, who had successfully defied Adolf Hitler for more than a decade, come to fall into such a lethal trap? And who betrayed them?
Undone from within and pursued to near-destruction by one of the Reich's cruellest men, they showed a heroism that raises a question with new urgency for our time: what kind of person does it take to risk everything and stand up to tyranny?©2025 Jonathan Freedland (P)2025 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
Resumo da Crítica
Written like a novel, this tale of heroism, camaraderie, betrayal and tragedy will leave a lasting impression. It is a salutary reminder that history can inspire, even in the darkest of times (JOHN BEW, bestselling author of CITIZEN CLEM)
Gripping, chilling, inspiring - Jonathan Freedland has a unique gift for exploring history's most profound questions with the urgency of a news reporter and the stylistic flair of a great novelist (Rafael Behr)
Freedland has an uncanny ability to combine deep historical research with the pace and tension of a thriller. Told through the eyes of masterfully-detailed characters, this tale reminds us that tyranny, treachery and bravery go hand in hand (John Kampfner, bestselling author of IN SEARCH OF BERLIN)
Spectacular. The compelling true story of raw human courage in the face of the ultimate evil. A page-turning, heartbreaker of a book (Tony Parsons, bestselling author of THE MURDER BAG)
Freedland's done it again. Thrilling, moving and inspiring, The Traitors Circle is a brilliant Second World War history book, as exciting as a novel and filled with extraordinary characters - some heroic and some evil - that is also both a portrait of courage, humanity and resistance against Nazi tyranny and a twisting tale of conspiracy and espionage (Simon Sebag Montefiore, bestselling author of THE WORLD: A FAMILY HISTORY)
