National Book Awards Popular Fiction Book of the Year 2013 They lied to protect their country. He told the truth to save it. A gripping historical thriller from the bestselling author of FATHERLAND. January 1895. On a freezing morning in the heart of Paris, an army officer, Georges Picquart, witnesses a convicted spy, Captain Alfred Dreyfus, being publicly humiliated in front of twenty thousand spectators baying Death to the Jew! The officer is rewarded with promotion- Picquart is made the French army s youngest colonel and put in command of the Statistical Section the shadowy intelligence unit that tracked down Dreyfus. The spy, meanwhile, is given a punishment of medieval cruelty- Dreyfus is shipped off to a lifetime of solitary confinement on Devil s Island unable to speak to anyone, not even his guards, his case seems closed forever. But gradually Picquart comes to believe there is something rotten at the heart of the Statistical Section. When he discovers another German spy operating on French soil, his superiors are oddly reluctant to pursue it. Despite official warnings, Picquart persists, and soon the officer and the spy are in the same pr

Utterly brilliant
I was recommended this book by a friend. I have never read this author before-I expected a pot boiler but it is an incredibly vivid account of the Drefus Affair.The writing is superb and I was awake all night reading it-does full justice to the horrors of D's arrest and appalling trial.and is utterly gripping.

An intriguing novel about the famed Dreyfuss affair in France.
Was unsure when I started, but after a couple of chapters I found this a very interesting read. Miscarriage of Justice and high level skulduggery in France at the end of the 19th Century. Difficult to find a suitable place to pause and put the book down, start again in earnest at a later time.

A tale too far?but readable.
read some of his earlier books,which I enjoyed,this I liked so far, then got boring so while its content seemed likeable it was too much for me,I did finish it,but the ending was self evident anyway.So read & seeif you agree!!

Which officer and which spy! Read it to find out.
Easily his best novel. A compelling story where the main character is not the victim. Harris does all his own research. I can’t praise it too much.
