Can any one person resist a dictator? The historical heft of Sebastian Faulks or William Boyd meets the sweeping, accessible narrative style of Kristin Hannah in this gripping drama set against the tumultuous rise of fascism and dictatorship in the late 1930s. From the Sunday Times bestselling author.

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR AND WINNER OF THE SALTIRE FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR

What if the only choice you have is no choice at all…

Humberto Barbetti is unwilling secretary to the Dominican dictator, Rafael Trujillo. Mercurial, capricious and ruthless to the core, Trujillo has ordered Barbetti to cover up a massacre. But Barbetti harbours a dangerous secret— he is hiding three children orphaned by the regime.

Meanwhile in Europe, two Jewish brothers fleeing Nazi persecution arrive in Paris. Chaim, a talented magician, sets out to make his mark among the nightclubs and cabarets of the capital. The other, Sol, is drawn to the Parisian underworld of politics and resistance.

As Hitler’s forces continue to advance, it seems the brothers will have no choice but to flee again. But when Sol falls under the spell of a beautiful, rich and high-connected American journalist, she offers them another way out – a way out that could change not only their own lives, but history itself.

What if the only choice you have is to survive…
