The Great Betrayal: A Short Story

De: Clive Aaron Gill

Narrado por: Jodi Landi

"The Great Betrayal", a short fictional story, was inspired by true events.

Rebecca’s family members were murdered during the Holocaust. Soon after she starts work at a dream job, her life changes forever when she meets a charming, wealthy widower. He becomes her lover and takes her to his exclusive club and on vacations to exotic locations. She discovers he works for a company that conducted business with the Nazi government. What decision does she make?

American companies assisted the mass identification of Jews, Roma and others during the Second World War, resulting in roundup, torture, and murder. Those companies' business dealings also prolonged the war, resulting in more Allied deaths, and destruction of military equipment and civilian property.

Riveting Account of Love & Betrayal

The Great Betrayal is a beautifully written account of a girl, Rebecca, and her relationship with her beloved grandfather. Before he dies, Ompa tells of the evils of Nazi Germany and the destruction of the millions of Jews under Hitler's reign of terror. He shares his story of working for IBM until he discovers they are selling information-gathering machines to the Nazis.

In the end, she is torn between the man she loves and his dedication to the corporate giant that betrayed her people and her country.

An exciting story of love and betrayal, plus a history lesson for those who are not familiar with the atrocities committed by the Germans during WWII.

The narrator was good, but the delivery lacked energy toward the end. Well worth listening to this because of the story, writing, and subject matter.
