Description
‘Beautifully told and gripping from first page to last’ Sunday Express’An incredible feat of storytelling… and an old-fashioned page-turner’ Donal Ryan’Gripping and well-honed…consummately constructed, humming with tension’ Guardian’You can’t prepare yourself for the magnitude and emotional impact of this powerful novel’ John IrvingFrom the author of the globally bestselling, multi-million-copy classic, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, comes its astonishing and powerful sequel.
Gretel Fernsby is a quiet woman leading a quiet life. She doesn’t talk about her escape from Germany seventy years ago or the dark post-war years in France with her mother. Most of all, she doesn’t talk about her father, the commandant of one of the most notorious Nazi concentration camps.
But when a young family moves into the apartment below her, Gretel can’t help but befriend their little boy, Henry, though his presence brings back painful memories. One night, she witnesses a violent argument between his parents, which threatens to disturb her hard-won peace.
For the second time in her life, Gretel is given the chance to save a young boy. To do so would allay her guilt, grief and remorse, but it will also force her to reveal her true identity.
Will she make a different choice this time, whatever the cost to herself?The new novel from John Boyne, WATER, is available for pre-order now.
