About this listen

 'Fabulous' Lesley Pearse

The Liberation is set in Italy in 1945 as British and American troops attempt to bring order to the devastated country and Italy’s population fights to survive. Caterina Lombardi is desperate – her father is dead, her mother has disappeared and her brother is being drawn towards danger. One morning, among the ruins of the bombed Naples streets, Caterina is forced to go to extreme lengths to protect her own life and in doing so forges a future in which she must clear her father's name. An Allied Army officer accuses him of treason and Caterina discovers a plot against her family. Who can she trust and who is the real enemy now? And will the secrets of the past be her downfall?

This epic novel is an unforgettably powerful story of love, loss and the long shadow of war.©2016 Kate Furnivall (P)2017 Simon & Schuster Historical Fiction Fiction Italy War

This was an excellent thought provoking book. Which had my emotions on a roller coaster.

Very good read

Whilst an interesting story line, this book is too long. At times it gets bogged down in unnecessary detail and flowery phrasing. I struggled to continue with it at times. The narration was well done.

Okay read but convoluted

Just didn't really grab me. Did finish though. Felt slow in parts with my mystery experience a little lack luster. Historical content was intersting. Maybe just wrong book at wrong time for me.

First read by this author and will definitely read another.

Undecided about this one
