In the battle-smoke and chaos of Gallipoli, a young New Zealand soldier helps a Turkish doctor fighting to save a boy's life. Then a shell bursts nearby; the blast that should have killed them both consigns them instead to the same military hospital.    Mahmoud is a Sufi. A whirling dervish, he says, of the Mevlevi order. He tells David stories. Of arriving in London with a pocketful of dried apricots. Of Majnun, the man mad for love, and of the saint who flew to paradise on a lion skin. You are God, we are all gods, Mahmoud tells David; and a bond grows between them.    A bond so strong that David will betray his country for his friend.    Stephen Daisley's astonishing debut novel is a story of war and of love-how each changes everything, forever. Traitor is that rarest of things: a work of fiction that will transport the reader, heart and soul, into another realm.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44187277328603,"sku":"9781921758379-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/products\/9781921758379-us-300.jpg?v=1689826515","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781921758379-secondhand-traitor","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
