About this listen
Some see Britain as an ally; others look to Germany for a hopeful future while some wish to remain as neutral as possible. In this atmosphere of edgy uncertainty, a young lieutenant, Paul Duggan, is drafted into the army's intelligence division, G2, and put on the German desk.
Paul delves into the double-dealing worlds of spies and politics, where ruthlessness, deviousness and occasional violence prevail, before confronting a surprising secret that challenges everything he has grown up believing.

Northwest listener
I thought it was very atmospheric and captured the history of potential war in Ireland. At times I found it a little heavy but informative.

Taught insight into the time
A really good spy story with insight into the time and place, which I knew nothing about.

Slow too star.
Great story, stick with it, its slow to get going. A mixture of historical truth and fiction turned into a family issue and spying. Enjoy.

Good story
Interesting story set in a less well exploited time and place. Well rounded characters bought to life by excellent narration.

narrator is excellent
I thought it was very atmospheric and captured that point in history in Ireland. The narrator was really excellent, I will definitely look out for him again.

Lovely slow burn
It’s one of those stories that goes nowhere and everywhere. Great banter in an Irish style that I can listen to endlessly.
