Summary
It's not unusual for spies to have secrets, but Henry Hunter has more than most, and after he is stopped by British Intelligence at Croydon airport on the eve of the Second World War, he finds he has even more.
In March 1941 in Berlin, haunted by a dark episode from his past, he makes a fateful decision resulting in a dramatic journey to the Swiss frontier, with a shocking outcome.

Fabulous
One of the best spy novels I’ve read. Twists and turns and heart in your mouth moments. Loved the narrator’s voice. Highly recommend!

Excellent narration.
The narrator really keeps this story flowing well and so easy to listen to. Another really good spy story, although I did get lost a little in the middle on various aspects. A quick rewind sorted that out and I thoroughly enjoyed this story having heard it right after the first in the series. Off to download the third now. An intriguing set of books which prompt historical reflection.

The storyline was convincing and clever
I liked the narration and the story. It was hard to remember all the names of the streets etc but overall I would recommend this as a good listen. .

I enjoyed this book. It was atmospheric and generally well written. The story is good and not too hyperbolic and therefore believable. The narration is okay and there are not too many characters to cause one to lose track. I think 4 stars is fair.
