About this listen
February, 1944. A bitter winter grips occupied France, where Marc Reece leads a circuit of British agents risking their lives in order to sabotage the German war effort from within. But Reece has a second mission, secret even from his fellow agents - including Charlotte, the woman with whom he has ill-advisedly fallen in love. He must secure a document identifying a German spy at the heart of British intelligence. The fate of the Allied forces on D-Day is in his hands.
But when his circuit is ambushed - with fatal consequences - Reece realises there may be a traitor in its ranks, putting everything they've been fighting for at risk. Then Charlotte goes missing. Is she in danger, or has Reece been betrayed by the only person he thought he could trust? And with the clock ticking towards D-Day, can he find the truth before it's too late?
A gripping and atmospheric thriller inspired by true events, this is the story of a deadly game of espionage, destined to change the course of the most crucial battle in the Second World War.

A really great read
Keeble is king as far as I’m concerned.
But this was a fantastic, fast paced WW2 thriller.
We’ll done Gareth, loved it!

Nice idea but too many easy coincidences
Nice conceit, but lazy writing with too many coincidences even for Sherlock .
Rather too cliched which seemed unnecessary
It was as if it was rushed.

Bit too convoluted for me
I admit to half listening at times as, although fast paced and description good, it just went on too long for me. Narration a bit shouty at times but it is an action book so maybe it had to be and just not to my taste.

Excellent
I really enjoyed this book. It pulls you in and gallops along to the end. The story was well read, intense and thought provoking.
The narrator was great and the timbre of his voice lent weight to the story.

Amazing story and narration
This has been an amazing story. Full of twists and turns, highs and lows. The narration brought everything to life. I felt I was taken back to 1944 (or at least watching and old movie). The combination of a great story and fantastic read made this a compelling listen. Highly recommended.
