A Spectator and Sunday Times Book of the Year 'The kind of book that stays with you for ever' -- Guardian 'Shocking' -- Sunday Times Towards the end of the Second World War, a weary partisan fighting with the Red Army in Germany comes across a grand, abandoned house, seemingly untouched by the devastation sweeping the land. Exhausted, he falls asleep in the living room, but wakes to find a Nazi patrol marching up the garden path. His only hope is to pose as the house's owner, but how will he keep up the pretence when the real owner returns? Dazzling, dark and scorchingly violent, with the breakneck pace of a thriller, this timeless classic is a vivid depiction of what happens when the mask of decency is cast aside in the savagery of war.
