Violent deaths. French double agents. Daring fraud.
DCI Frank Merlin sets out on his most complex case yet...
War rages across Europe.
France is under the Nazi thumb. Britain has its back to the wall. In London, Scotland Yard detective Merlin investigates a series of disturbing events - a young girl killed in a botched abortion, a French emigré shot in a seedy Notting Hill flat, a mysterious letter written by a British officer, gunned down in Crete.
With action spanning Buenos Aires, New York, Cairo and Occupied France, Merlin and his team are plunged into a dark world of espionage, murder, love and betrayal.

And don't forget the other titles in the highly praised DCI Frank Merlin series: Princess Gate, Stalin's Gold and A Death In Mayfair.
