Description

'An epic tale of love, dishonour, bravery, cowardice, betrayal and high-treason.

Beautifully written. A stunning debut' Damien LewisPlayboy. Fascist. Strongman. Thief. Traitors. John Amery is a drunk and a fanatic, an exiled playboy whose frail body is riven by contradictions.

Harold Cole is a cynical, murderous conman who desperately wants to be seen as an officer and a gentleman.

Eric Pleasants is an iron-willed former wrestler; he is also a pacifist, and will not be forced into fighting other men's battles.

William Joyce can weave spells when he talks, but his true gifts are for rage and hate.

By the end of the Second World War, they will all have betrayed their country.

The Traitors is the story of how they came to do so.

Drawing on declassified MI5 files, it is a book about chaotic lives in turbulent times; idealism twisted out of shape; of torn consciences and abandoned loyalties; and the tragic consequences that treachery brings in its wake.
