Editor's note: This giveaway has ended.

Historical fiction is a wonderful genre that allows for readers to dive into the humanity behind the facts. While history books provide essential context about the past, historical fiction offers insight into the minds of those who came before us. This month we've partnered with HarperCollins to bring you a fresh and moving historical fiction tale set during World War II.

Mitch Albom's The Little Liar explores the power of truth—or rather, the destructive power of lies. When a young Jewish boy unknowingly leads his community to their doom at Auschwitz, a devastating string of consequences follows, including his new mindset as a pathological liar. This book hits shelves on November 14th, but 10 lucky winners will receive an early print copy!

About the Book

The Little Liar

By Mitch Albom

Beloved bestselling author Mitch Albom returns with a powerful novel that moves from a coastal Greek city during the Holocaust, to America, where the intertwined lives of three survivors are forever changed by the perils of deception and the grace of redemption.

Eleven-year-old Nico Krispis never told a lie. When the Nazi’s invade his home in Salonika, Greece, the trustworthy boy is discovered by a German officer, who offers him a chance to save his family. All Nico has to do is convince his fellow Jewish residents to board trains heading to “new homes” where they are promised jobs and safety. Unaware that this is all a cruel ruse, the innocent boy goes to the station platform every day and reassures the passengers that the journey is safe. But when the final train is at the station, Nico sees his family being loaded into a large boxcar crowded with other neighbors. Only after it is too late does Nico discover that he helped send the people he loved—and all the others—to their doom at Auschwitz.

Nico never tells the truth again.

In The Little Liar, his first novel set during the Holocaust, Mitch Albom interweaves the stories of Nico, his brother Sebastian, and their schoolmate Fanni, who miraculously survive the death camps and spend years searching for Nico, who has become a pathological liar, and the Nazi officer who radically changed their lives. As the decades pass, Albom reveals the consequences of what they said, did, and endured.

A moving parable that explores honesty, survival, revenge and devotion, The Little Liar is Mitch Albom at his very best. Narrated by the voice of Truth itself, it is a timeless story about the harm we inflict with our deceits, and the power of love to ultimately redeem us.
