Moving from wartime Europe to modern day Australia, The Deceptions is a powerful story of old transgressions, unexpected revelations and the legacy of lives built on lies and deceit.
Prague, 1943. Taken from her home in Prague, Hana Lederova finds herself imprisoned in the Jewish ghetto of Theresienstadt, where she is forced to endure appalling deprivation and the imminent threat of transportation to the eastWhen she attracts the attention of the Czech gendarme who becomes her guard, Hana reluctantly accepts his advances, hoping for the protection she so desperately needs.
Sydney, 2010. Manipulated into a liaison with her married boss, Tessa knows she needs to end it, but how? Tessa''s grandmother, Irena, also has something to hideHarkening back to the Second World War, hers is a carefully kept secret that, if revealed, would send shockwaves well beyond her own fractured family.
Inspired by a true story of wartime betrayal, The Deceptions is a searing, compassionate tale of love and duplicity-and family secrets better left buried.
''The Deceptions is a stunning example of the way fiction tells war better than any other form - I could taste its madness, its horrorSaw from the outside, its utter absurdity. For days after reading the novel I found myself wrestling with the price of betrayal, and the value of truth.'' - Sofie Laguna, winner of the Miles Franklin Literary Award
''At what cost can a survivor of hell rebuild a seemingly normal life? The Deceptions is a gripping and tragic story for our times.'' - Leah Kaminsky, author of The Hollow Bones
''Impossible to put downLeal is a master storyteller. Mesmerising, heartbreaking, honest-The Deceptions is ferociously good.'' - Nikki Gemmell, author of After
''Those who grew up in the shadow of the Second World War had Elie Wiesel''s Night to define for them the enormity for the HolocaustThose who were born later can now rely upon Suzanne Leal''s brilliant and confronting novel The Deceptions to open their eyes to the true horrors of Nazism.'' - Alan Gold, author of Bloodline
