The Hiding Game

An intoxicating story of love and betrayal set in 1920s Germany. In Roaring Twenties Germany, Paul, Charlotte and Walter meet at the Bauhaus art school. The trio form a close-knit group, in which passions and rivalries collide. But when Walter is betrayed, he makes a terrible mistake - a secret he will keep from Paul and Charlotte for as long as he can. As political tensions escalate and the Nazis gain power, Walter's secret - hidden in notebooks, paintings and blueprints - ultimately threatens the very lives of his friends, with devastating consequences. Thrilling, gripping and unforgettable, Naomi Wood's The Hiding Game explores the perils of secrecy in a changing and dangerous world.
