Über diesen Titel

The downloadable, digital audiobook edition of Rhidian Brook’s powerful new thriller The Aftermath, read by the actor Leighton Pugh.

Hamburg, 1946: Thousands remain displaced in what is now the British Occupied Zone. Charged with overseeing the rebuilding of this devastated city and the de-Nazification of its defeated people, Colonel Lewis Morgan has requisitioned a fine house on the banks of the Elbe, where he will be joined by his grieving wife, Rachael, and only remaining son, Edmund. But rather than force its owners, a German widower and his traumatised daughter, to leave their home, Lewis insists that the two families live together.

In this charged and claustrophobic atmosphere all must confront their true selves as enmity and grief give way to passion and betrayal. The Aftermath is a stunning novel about our fiercest loyalties, our deepest desires, and the transforming power of forgiveness.

A very well written as well as a very interesting book that gives the listener besides listening entertainment also insight in the post World War II situation in Germany. Leighton Pugh, who read the book, did an absolutely excellent job.

excellently written and read

This book left me wanting to continue listening to it. Beautifully written, well formed characters and a fascinating plot. In addition full of information about a time and place where my grandmother lived but l knew hardly anything about. Leighton Pugh reads it perfectly, letting pictures emerge without emphasizing the dramatic times. Thank you.

Fascinating story about unknown times in Germany
