A gut-wrenching, startling window into communist Romania and the citizen spy network that devastated a nation . . .
Master storyteller Ruta Sepetys (Salt of the Sea and Between Shades of Gray) gifts readers I Must Betray You, a historical thriller that examines the little-known history of a nation defined by silence, pain, as well as the unwavering conviction of the human spirit.
“As educational as it is thrilling, I Must Betray You doesn’t just describe the destabilizing effects of being spied on; it will make its readers experience them too.” -- New York Times Book Review
