An Officer and a Spy
by Robert Harris, 2014, Vintage Reprint Edition
I think this is an excellent book! It is an historical novel about the Dreyfus affair and one of the officers in the military who was involved in the arrest of Dreyfus. He later has doubts about Dreyfus’ guilt and launches his own investigation.
The book is written in the first-person, present tense so it feels as if whatever is happening is happening right now, even though the events depicted happened over one hundred years ago. The book is very well written, the characters are superb, and the plot flows well. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.
