An escape from Paris to Prague in this exciting, epic third novel from Pierre Lemaitre's bestselling 'Glorious Years' series

The epic third novel in the 'Glorious Years' series

'A novelist at the height of his powers' La Croix

April, 1959 and the upheavals in the lives of the Pelletier family continue apace. There's a hair-raising escape from Paris to Prague, from a radio studio to dingy, dangerous alleyways, from a cold and icy dungeon to a pool hall, and from a convent school to the labyrinthine and obscure offices of the Republic.

Each Pelletier will have to choose between their own self-interest and a need for duty, and for some, between the desires of the heart, and matters of state.
In the third of his series set over thirty years of the 20th century, Pierre Lemaitre has created a colourful, compelling novel of action and wild adventure.


'You have the ingredients Balzac would have cooked with. And it is exactly those great 19th century novels that Lemaitre will remind you of' Sunday Times
