1943 Bavaria.
Undercover agent Alistair Valentine overhears a snippet of conversation between two leading Nazis. A few words that could mean nothing. Or absolutely everything…
One overheard conversation… could change the course of history forever. 1943. Deep in Nazi territory, British agent Alistair Valentine hears a deadly plan—an attack on the heart of Britain that could bring the country to its knees. A plan to attack the royal family at Windsor Castle with nerve gas. To crush the monarchy. To end Britain’s hope.
This is more than just a spy mission. It’s a race against time to save a nation. One false move, and Britain will fall into enemy hands. The fate of Britain rests on the shoulders of a few brave souls.

‘Surely this will make a great film!’
‘When war or the threat of war is “over there”, we care, sure, but then we grab an ale and decide on dinner. When we face an invasion HERE, though, every citizen becomes a bit of a hero. The boy delivering an apple to the old woman next door. The young girl helping to sew blackout curtains. The lorry driver making his or her vital rounds under threat of another bombing run. This is a novel with a hero, or two, but the large picture is that every man and woman had a part to play in preserving the freedom of a country and a continent.’
‘From the start, this story conveys that sense of time and place, blending actual characters from our history with fictional, but wholly plausible, characters. It does not detail the horrors of war; there are no close ups of trauma, so to speak. We have seen enough, I say. A great beauty of Robert Wallace’s writing is that those details aren’t required. This not to say that the trauma isn’t there. It is, but we are placed in a world where wartime is implicit, along with an optimism that simply must exist.’
‘As you read this book, try to imagine what actors could play the lead roles in a major motion picture release. Surely this will make a great film.’

Nigel Clarke, Goodreads –
A fast paced WW2 spy thriller that combines credible characters with the Nazi notorious. Chapter 2 of the book is called “hooked” and by then I was! The twists and turns in the plot kept me engaged throughout.
I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.
