About this audiobook
It's 1940, Guernsey. Vivienne de la Mare waits nervously for the bombs to drop. Instead comes quiet surrender and insidious occupation. Her husband is fighting on the frontline, and her new life is one where the enemy lives next door. Small acts of kindness from one Nazi soldier feel like a betrayal. But how can you hate your enemy when you know his name, when he makes you feel alive, when everything else is dying around you?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the better novels I've read so far this year. There's plenty of detail, complexity, and a decent plot. It's certainly not a cheery upbeat novel - kidnapping, torture, death, drugs, dismal life outlooks in copious amounts - definitely a rather dark mystery / suspense novel. Of note is the detailed depiction of Italy, especially the Sails of Scampia, in some sections though you did get the sense there was a bit too much detail and it took away from the pace of the story.Otherwise, a very good book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In London, the daughter of a Naples crime family goes against everything she knows and decides to testify against her family. She leaves behind her innocent boyfriend, Eddie Deacon, without an explanation. Eddie goes to Naples to find her and walks into the stronghold of her family. They will use any means to keep her from cooperating with the police.Gerald Seymour creates knife-edge characters, builds the plot incrementally and infuses the entire story with exceptional research and writing. The Collaborator is a first-class suspense novel.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Surprised how good this books was as wouldn’t normally read books like this ?
