The hidden storyteller

Robotham, Mandy2024
Books
Hamburg, 1946. The war is over, and Germany is in ruins. Posted to an Allied-run Hamburg, reporter Georgie Young returns to the country she fled seven years prior - as Chamberlain spoke those fateful words - to find it unrecognisable. Amidst the stark horrors of a bombed-out city crumbling under the weight of millions of displaced Europeans, she discovers pockets of warmth: a violinist playing amidst the wreckage, couples dancing in the streets, and a nation trying to make amends. But when she joins forces with local policeman Harri Schroder to solve a murder case he is working on - a woman with the word traitor engraved into her skin - she soon discovers that the darkest secrets of war haven't been left in the past. And once again she is pulled into a world she hardly expected to see again.
