Berlin, 1943. A group of high-society anti-Nazi dissenters meet for a tea party one late summer afternoon, forming an unlikely circle of rebels drawn from the German elite that would defy Hitler for over a decade.
They do not know that, sitting around the table, was someone poised to betray them all to the Gestapo – revealing their secret to the Nazis’ most ruthless detective.
In his latest release, The Traitors Circle, multi-award-winning journalist and bestselling author Jonathan Freedland brings a remarkable tale of courage and resistance from the Third Reich to life.
