The Traitor's Emblem
of Juan Gomez-Jurado (Goodreads Author), Daniel Hahn (translator)
Description
Based on a true story: A Spanish sea captain rescues four German castaways during a treacherous storm in 1940. He doesnât know who they are or where they came from, but one of them gives him a mysterious gold-and-diamond emblem before disembarking. Decades later, the captainâs son receives a substantial offer for it and is told an astounding story behind the object: it holds the key to Paul Reinerâs lifelong quest. . . . Munich, 1919. After his family falls into disgrace, fifteen-year-old Paul dreams of the heroic father he never knew. But one night, seconds before committing suicide, Paulâs cousin reveals a terrible secret about his fatherâs death. This discovery turns Paulâs world upside down and leads him on a hunt in Nazi Germany to uncover the mystery surrounding his fatherâs death. The Traitorâs Emblem is an epic novel spanning decades of family betrayal, impossible love, and the high price of vengeance. Set against the menacing streets of Depression-era Munich and the cruel rise of Nazism, GĂłmez-Juradoâs spellbinding thriller proves again that he is a master of narration.
