Krátký popis
''Expect a tale of love, courage and being brave in the most
dangerous of times'' Woman''s WayYou can pay a terrible price for
keeping a promise...Evelyn Taylor-Clarke sits in her chair at
Forest Lawns Care Home in the heart of the English countryside,
surrounded by residents with minds not as sharp as hers. It would
be easy to dismiss Evelyn as a muddled old woman, but her lipstick
is applied perfectly, and her buttons done up correctly. Because
Evelyn is a woman with secrets and Evelyn remembers everything. She
can never forget the promise she made to the love of her life, to
discover the truth about the mission that led to his death, no
matter what it cost her...When Evelyn''s niece Pat opens an old
biscuit tin to find a photo of a small girl with a red ball
entitled ''Liese, 1951'' and a passport in another name, she has
some questions for her aunt. And Evelyn is transported back to a
place in Germany known as ''The Forbidden Village'', where a woman
who called herself Eva went where no one else dared, amongst
shivering prisoners, to find the man who gambled with her
husband''s life...A gripping, haunting and compelling read about
love, courage and betrayal set in the war-battered landscape of
Germany. Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Cilka''s Journey and
The Child of Auschwitz will be hooked.Readers are raving about My

betrayal and bravery that kept me page turning and completely
engrossed from start to finish. Loved it and would definitely
recommend.'' NetGalley Reviewer, 5 stars''A phenomenal story of
courage, love, murder and all the atrocities that go with war. Eva
is an extraordinary character, strong, loyal, smart, funny, loving,
and brave.A phenomenal read!!'' Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars''This
may be my new favorite book!!!! I absolutely love the premise of
the heroine faking dementia in her retirement home to cover up her
knowledge of (and possible involvement in) questionable activities
centering around WWII events. The tempo of this novel was
perfect--kept me wondering until the very last page!'' Goodreads
Reviewer, 5 stars''Absolutely loved this book and its riveting
plot!... The author has successfully penned a debut novel that I
would highly recommend without any hesitation. An excellent debut
novel from Suzanne Goldring and I look forward to reading more of
her work .'' Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars
