Just the one this week…
The Traitor by V.S. Alexander (ebook, courtesy of One More Chapter and NetGalley)
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.
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.
