The Traitors Circle

An intense, true-to-life tale set in Berlin in 1943, following a group of high-society anti-Nazi dissenters who gather for a tea party, unaware that one of them is about to betray them to the Gestapo. Composed of a circle that includes two countesses, a diplomat, an intelligence officer, an ambassador’s widow and a pioneering headmistress, the story follows their courage, risks and moral questions as they rescue Jews and resist the Führer’s rule. The narrative explores how a group of principled rebels can be drawn into a lethal trap, and what kind of person it takes to stand up to tyranny. The book runs to 480 pages in paperback.

Their defiance is tested as they navigate perilous choices and deadly pursuit by one of the Reich’s cruellest men, delivering a powerful meditation on truth, loyalty and courage in dark times.
