Resumen del Editor

What would life in a democracy like New Zealand have been if it had been occupied by Nazi Germany? Would New Zealanders have resisted or collaborated? This well-researched gripping novel paints a realistic picture of what could have happened.

Hamish Beavis, a Nazi collaborator, and Stuart Johnson, a resistance member, are both in love with beautiful Carol Peterson, who carries a dark secret. Carol's crucial choice and its repercussions are set against a background of violence and betrayal in post-war New Zealand under Nazi rule.
