Description:
Spring, 1945. As the Second World War draws to a close, a desperate race against time begins, sparked by one man who holds a secret that could dramatically reshape the post-war world. Peter Hencke, an unlikely hero and a German prisoner of war, makes a daring escape from an Allied prison camp, refusing to wait for the peace that freedom might bring. Fired by a personal mission, he embarks on a treacherous journey across wartime Britain and the remnants of the Third Reich, heading towards the heart of encircled Berlin. Pursued by powerful and ruthless men and facing the mightiest armies ever assembled, Hencke's survival hinges on his wit and the help of two extraordinary women. The secret he carries will remain hidden until the very last moments of the war, promising a truly unexpected twist to the final days of the conflict. This acclaimed historical thriller by the author of House of Cards is a fast-moving tale of intrigue and adventure that will keep readers gripped until the cataclysmic finale, notes Goodreads. Perfect for fans of World War II fiction, espionage thrillers, and high-stakes adventure with unexpected turns and a believable plot that challenges conventional history.
