FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR AND WINNER OF THE SALTIRE FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR

What if the only choice you have is no choice at all…

Humberto Barbetti is unwilling secretary to the Dominican dictator, Rafael Trujillo. Mercurial, capricious and ruthless to the core, Trujillo has ordered Barbetti to cover up a massacre. But Barbetti harbours a dangerous secret— he is hiding three children orphaned by the regime.

Meanwhile in Europe, two Jewish brothers fleeing Nazi persecution arrive in Paris. Chaim, a talented magician, sets out to make his mark among the nightclubs and cabarets of the capital. The other, Sol, is drawn to the Parisian underworld of politics and resistance.

As Hitler’s forces continue to advance, it seems the brothers will have no choice but to flee again. But when Sol falls under the spell of a beautiful, rich and high-connected American journalist, she offers them another way out – a way out that could change not only their own lives, but history itself.

What if the only choice you have is to survive…

No Place for Us is a vivid and gripping novel for anyone who loves the moral depths of fiction by William Boyd or Sebastian Faulks, coupled with the page-turning plots of Robert Harris or Mick Herron.

Kritikerstimmen

This is historical fiction at its finest. Vivid and authentic characters, and a story that illuminates and transports the reader to a time and place in an unforgettable way.
A deep and painfully evocative examination of a man trapped between duty and morality, beautifully written, very much a book for our times. I hope Mr Lusk wont mind me comparing him to Graham Greene in his ability to skilfully explore murky moral ambiguity.
No Place for Us is the work of an exceptional writer and a brilliant storyteller. It is an utterly convincing, beautifully-realised historical novel that is incredibly pertinent to our times.
A wonderful book. Full of heart, wisdom and compassion, it deals with massive themes that have resonance today, and reminded me of William Boyd’s Any Human Heart. Essentially, it’s a story about stories - those we tell ourselves, those we tell others, and the consequences. A triumph of hope and humanity.
What does it take to survive in a time of war, deceits, and betrayals? No Place for Us by Sean Lusk is a profound and thrilling novel . . . as relevant today as for the times in which it is set. Sean Lusk goes from strength to strength. Surely one of the finest writers of our generation.
