A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by Penguin.

February 1944. Six months since Nazi forces occupied Rome.

Inside the beleaguered city, the Contessa Giovanna Landini is a member of the band of Escape Line activists known as ‘The Choir’. Their mission is to smuggle refugees to safety and help Allied soldiers, all under the nose of Gestapo boss Paul Hauptmann.

During a ferocious morning air raid a mysterious parachutist lands in Rome and disappears into the backstreets. Is he an ally or an imposter? His fate will come to put the whole Escape Line at risk.

Meanwhile, Hauptmann’s attention has landed on the Contessa. As his fascination grows, she is pulled into a dangerous game with him – one where the consequences could be lethal.

Recensioni della critica

A superb testament to humankind’s bravery and resilience...moving and immersive
Tremendous and terrifying (Fintan O'Toole)
The tension doesn’t slack an inch… It is haunting, sensuous and immaculately constructed — without sacrificing any thrills
The Ghosts of Rome is both a tribute to the imagination and courage of his remarkable team [of The Escape Line] and a riveting thriller
Blazes with imaginative flair and narrative energy... packed with sensuously evoked reminders of Rome's rich past...haunted and haunting
There is no finer writer of historical fiction than Joseph O’Connor. . . Beautifully written, warm and witty, this story of a terrorised city is a must-read. Thrilling, terrifying and entertaining in equal measure. (Liz Nugent, Number One Bestselling author of STRANGE SALLY DIAMOND)
[A] vivid and moving story, with O’Connor seamlessly combining real characters with imagined ones
As thrilling, beautiful and sensational a novel as you'll read this or any year (Donal Ryan)
Digs ever deeper into the lives of the everyday heroes of a war-ravaged city, unearthing stories of remarkable courage and ingenuity that glitter from the pages of this tense, polyphonic narrative (Sarah Gilmartin)
A stellar piece of storytelling. O'Connor brilliantly captures the sense of the city and its inhabitants in peril
