Summary

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 emigre 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.

Critic reviews

"A richly atmospheric, authentic, and suspenseful detective series set during World War II on the UK's home front. Mark Ellis calls to mind Ken Follett, Alan Furst, and P.D. James." (Joseph Finder, New York Times best-selling author of Suspicion and Guilty Minds)

The narrator is excellent

Overall very enjoyable series although the writer does tend to obe4 complicate the storyline with too many sub plots and twists that make it difficult to marry up without intense concentration!
